Ensuite il m'est arrivé la même chose que toi. Sauf que chez Yahoo, le mail est apparu dans 'Bulk'. J'ai supprimé aprés verif. Thanks a lot for the informations and have a nice day :)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Briget&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">brigetjones</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 22 Mar 2005 07:12:16 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Paypal Scam Nearly Got Me</title><link>http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2004/05/15/paypal-scam-nearly-got-me/#comment-1772596</link><description>&lt;p&gt;thanks for writing about your experience, stephanie! it's so hard to tell what is real in this world anymore. :( if it's okay with you, i'd like  to link to this thread from my blog.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;best,&lt;br&gt;jenny&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">jenny e.</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 22 May 2004 20:16:04 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Paypal Scam Nearly Got Me</title><link>http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2004/05/15/paypal-scam-nearly-got-me/#comment-1772595</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Merci pour cet article. J'avais tout oublié des consignes de sécurité et je viens tout juste de recevoir un courriel de paypal me signalant que ma CB arrive à  expiration et qu'il me faudra mettre à  jour mes infos ! Après vérifications ça vient bien de chez eux. Un instant je ne savais plus que croire !&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Jean Lespinasse</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 19 May 2004 20:07:50 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Paypal Scam Nearly Got Me</title><link>http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2004/05/15/paypal-scam-nearly-got-me/#comment-1772594</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Tu croyais que quoi ne marchait pas? Rien ne t'empêche sur un mac de cliquer sur un lien "déguisé" dans un e-mail html, et de donner ton nom d'utilisateur et ton mot de passe à  un site qui n'est pas celui que tu crois, si tu ne vérifies pas attentivement ce qui est écrit dans la barre d'adresse... Ce qui a failli se passer pour moi.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Steph</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 19 May 2004 03:25:06 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Paypal Scam Nearly Got Me</title><link>http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2004/05/15/paypal-scam-nearly-got-me/#comment-1772593</link><description>&lt;p&gt;je croyais qu'avec les macs ça ne marchait pas, tu n'utilises pas safari?&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">l helvete underground</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 18 May 2004 19:39:03 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Paypal Scam Nearly Got Me</title><link>http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2004/05/15/paypal-scam-nearly-got-me/#comment-1772592</link><description>&lt;p&gt;J'utilise aussi Paypal, merci pour toutes ces infos, vais rester vigilant.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Jocelyn</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 16 May 2004 12:20:33 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Paypal Scam Nearly Got Me</title><link>http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2004/05/15/paypal-scam-nearly-got-me/#comment-1772591</link><description>&lt;p&gt;What about using GnuPG to make sure that the e-mail is not faked ? SMTP is not a secure protocol, using asymetric cryptography to ensure trust should be relevant to that kind of business, or am I just to geeky here ?&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Lunar</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 15 May 2004 21:30:39 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Paypal Scam Nearly Got Me</title><link>http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2004/05/15/paypal-scam-nearly-got-me/#comment-1772590</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Yep; they're getting trickier all right. They are now taking advantage of a rather nasty flaw in Internet Explorer that allows them to present fraudulent URLs in the status bar, so even if you check where the link goes to, you can't always be certain.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Fortunately, I haven't seen a Linux browser yet that is fooled by this ...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Incidentally, Evolution 2.0 now displays the link target in the status bar, too; a much wanted feature, and I'm hearing that there's an effort underway to port it over to Windows as a nearly native application.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">David Breakey</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 15 May 2004 20:48:01 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
