Facebook Phishing

I just got an email from Facebook saying one of my friends sent me a message. It said "Hello" and "Visit:" and it had a link. I won't put it on here but if you are interested, it ended up being routed to fbaction.net DO NOT VISIT! It's not Facebook. They just want your login. I could be wrong, but why risk it, just login to Facebook from Facebook.com.

*update* I've made the change but it's not fbaction.com its FBACTION.NET. fbaction.com is not a threat, thanks 'the cliff'!

Here is Facebook.com















Here is fbaction.net (looks similar...)

Aloha,

the site phishing site is actually FBAction.NET. NOT FBAction.COM. I just registered the .com version to help with any confusion. Just thought I would let you know. :)

Sorry the cliff! I'm editing it now. Thanks for the headsup!

hey man...its no problem...i just hate seeing phishing sites, and didnt want to have anyone hit the .net. I got the .com and just parked it at Sedo so there wouldn;t be any confusion and I may make enough on the parking to cover the registration. ;)
