A recent phishing attempt received here at SafeTinspector included the following missive:

“You are receiving this message, due to you protection, Our Online Technical Security Service Foreign IP Spy recently detected that your online account was recently logged on from am 54.39.192.149 without am International Access Code (I.A.C) and from an unregistered computer, which was not verified by the Our Online Service Department.

    If you last logged in you online account on Thursday September 27th 2007, by the time 6:42 am from an Foreign Ip their is no need for you to panic, but if you did log in your account on the above Date and Time, kindly take 2-3 minute of your online banking experince to verify and register your computer now to avoid identity theft, your protection is our future medal.” – anon. phisher

    These guys should already know that I know that their is no need to panic, but in attempting to take 2 minute of my online banking expirince to register my computer I found that it wasn’t enough to my protection is their future medal. In fact, I tried to take 3 minute, but that didn’t work.

    I sure hope the Our Online Technical Security Service Foreign IP Spy was wrong, because now I feel even more doomed than usual.
