PayPal-mimicking phishing sites taken offline
PayPal has worked to shut down a handful of phishing websites that sought to steal people’s login credentials by appearing to be the company’s real website, according to a security company.
Many of the sites, which are offline or have been redirected, were nearly identical copies of PayPal’s website, which could have fooled some victims into divulging their details, according to OpenDNS, a security company that in part monitors for suspicious domain name registrations.
