| Netcraft - The Toolbar community is effectively a giant neighbourhood watch scheme, empowering the most alert and most expert members to defend everyone within the community against phishing frauds. Once the first recipients of a phishing mail have reported the target URL, it is blocked for community members as they subsequently access the URL. Widely disseminated attacks (people constructing phishing attacks send literally millions of electronic mails in the expectation that some will reach customers of the bank) simply mean that the phishing attack will be reported and blocked sooner. | The Internet Defence Phishery is a repository of phishing emails. It enables security researchers, or simply anyone concerned about the validity of an email that they have received, to check out the status of an email. | Google gaat Domainkeys gebruiken om phishingmailtjes die van eBay of Paypal lijken te komen, te weren. Deze worden niet afgeleverd als de mailservers van eBay of Paypal de verzending niet verifiëren.
Domainkeys werd oorspronkelijk door Yahoo ontwikkeld, en werd al eerder voor Yahoo Mail-accounts ingezet om phishingaanvallen af te slaan die zogenaamd van eBay of Paypal afkomstig waren. Met de techniek voorziet de verzendende mailserver ieder mailtje van een versleutelde digitale handtekening, die door de ontvangende server wordt gedecodeerd om de afzender te verifiëren. Zo kunnen naast phishers ook spammers worden geweerd. Domainkeys werd vorig jaar door de Internet Engineering Taskforce goedgekeurd. | Welcome to MillerSmiles.co.uk!

Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it unless some body applies for it as next of kin ,relation or business partner to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidlings and laws but unfortunately we learnt that all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside with him at the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim. It is therefore upon this discovery that I now decided to make this business proposal to you and release the money to you as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and i don't want this money to go into the bank treasury as unclaimed bill.
The banking law and guidline here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after Ten Years,the money will be transfered into the bank treasury as unclaimed fund. The request of foreigner as next of kin in this business is occassioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and a Burkinabe cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner.I agree that 40% of this money will be for you as a compensation for the provision of a foriegn account and your assistance,10% will be set aside for any upfront expenses incurred during the business and 50% would be for me Thereafter as the originator of the business.
I will visit your country for disbursement of the fund according to the percentage indicated above and for investment too.Therefore to enable the immediate transfer of this fund to you as arranged,you must apply first to the bank as relation,next of kin or business partner of the deceased with a text of application that i will send to you,so i will like you to send to me your private telephone and fax number for easy and effective communication and location where in the money will be remitted.
Upon receipt of your positive reply,I will send to you by e-mail the text of the application.I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is hitch-free and that you should not entertain any atom of fear as all required arrangements have been made for the transfer. If you are willing,capable and ready to assist me in this business you should contact me immediately you gone through this letter.
Trusting to hear from you immediately.
Yours Faithfully,
