Reverse phishing?

by Jesse 12. June 2009 08:35

I'm convinced there's a new type of phishing expedition going on in an attempt to hack search engine results.  Why?  Comments on my blog that don't add up.  For one, the magic key words the person leaves as their name.  I've dropped this as an image because I want none of those getting picked up by a search engine but its pretty clear they want an email.

The IP traces back to .ph ...hmmm, think they're could be a "California Orange County Lawyer"? Hardly not.  Website comes back to nothing, which surprises me, but I've seen them come back to random, infested sites.  Icing on the cake, the half right, confusing context english.  Ahhh I love it.  Curious, should I send an email to that account (after I create a new fake one of course)?  Could be fun...

Update : 6/17/09 - here's another one I got.  I post "interesting matters here"!  Yay!

About the author

Like the description says, at my core, I'm a scientist and engineer.  I came from humble beginnings on a 486DX2 Packard Hell playing doom2 on IPX to in a small time retail shop and got into hardware (ISO layers FTW!) and it was all downhill from there.  I'm infinitely curious about almost everything and always wanting to know.

According to personality tests (real ones) I classify under "Rational" more specifically, a Fieldmarshal.  I think there's something to that.

Some of the stuff I'm currently into/researching...

Sitefinity

Ninject

Subsonic 

Currently working on ...
