This morning, I received a realistic looking message appearing to be from our hosting provider (linode) which was trying to convince me to send out my credit card information. Titled... "Linode Support Ticket 13142320 - Other - Account Limit reached. Please open a support ticket." This may even be more of a "spear phishing" thing as it it was broadly personalized to me, as I help manage the GTALUG account at linode. Something was looking suspicious about the URL... http://login.linode.com.login.return.to.https.21354545.paulinasfriends.com -- When confronted by a difficult problem, solve it by reducing it to the question, "How would the Lone Ranger handle this?"
