I was surprised today when I received an email that I got some money from Moneybookers. The amount was worth nearly $400. I really could not believe it because I was not expecting money from somebody or from some online website. I decided to get to Moneybookers website directly instead of clicking the links contained in my email.

When I logged in successfully in Moneybookers, I did not see any link or announcement that lets me confirm the receipt of that cash. There was only nothing in my account. I went back to my email and hovered my cursor over the links: the links showed a site that does not end with moneybookers.com but it showed links that ends with addwebhosting.com.

I think someone reported the site already as a phishing site, but I decided to report this matter to Moneybookers anyway. I posted this one immediately so that we could be aware of this recent scam. I still think Moneybookers is a great site and I don’t think that they will do this mischief. Anybody could be easy to fake the “from” address of the email – anyone could do it with their email settings then send it off to the my email address.

Be aware of emails that lead to phishing sites. Educate the world!
