Creating fake Web pages and tricking victims into entering personal data is hardly a new scam, but it seems to have new life lately. Last weekend some customers of Kaypro Technology, Inc., an online computer store, received e-mail from a computer criminal using the same technique as the PayPal fraudster. Fortunately for customers, the scam was betrayed by poor English in the e-mail:
?During this week we have problems with our Customers DataBase we might loss some of our Customers information. So we ask you to fill this form: http://www.kaypro.net/form.htm.?
Kaypro Technology?s real Web site is Kaypro.com. A spokesperson for the company said it immediately sent e-mail to all its customers warning about the scam. Only a few report receiving the invitation, and none reported falling for it, the spokesman said.
umm... all your ass are belong to Bubba...
