The directory display was done with a javascript app embedded on the web
page, that will bring up the contents of your root directory. I viewed
this one on a BSD box, with no java enabled through the browser.

The page that was re-directed after viewing this one, was nothing more
than a display of some very basic HTTP headers - nothing was sent back to
them. Looks like nothing more than a scam attempt (a very bad one at
that).
