Okay, I don’t normally like spreading panic, but I’ve just received an email from the site http://qsl.youareblocked.com/ through a friend of mines hotmail account:

This is NOT Spam

Despite the friendly “Secure Site” and “This is not spam” messages, this is almost definitely a phishing site… If you have fallen victim to this attack, I suggest you change your password, and because it emails all your contacts, send an email around to all of your address book.

EDIT: It seems that they have learnt, and the following email is another variation (this time from http://my-buddies-block-circle.com), delivered in a much more casual manner (although I have no idea why my friend would assure me something is secure)

Hello0o!

Howdyy? had a damn boring day today :s

Anyway, i can bet you’re going to smile after reading this… :]

The scam on messenger

EDIT AGAIN: Well, it looks like this thing is spreading via msn messenger too, proving that it saves your password.
