Help me shut down this scam please

[MDLarson]

Some idiot sent me another email saying...

"Dear User, eBay needs a correct information from you.

The link provided goes to this page.

The last time this happened to me, I emailed the web server company the page resided on, and it got shut down quickly. This time, it's like on it's own static IP. What should I / we do?

 

[MDLarson]

I visited the top level of the link the email sent me:
http://62.193.210.48/

It looks like maybe it's a page hosted by http://www.sw-soft.com/

So I sent them an email.

The machine that the site is running on is hosted by this company.

What you are seeing at the SWsoft page is most likely a bullshit company front page to deter you if you attempt to research deeper.

Best thing to do will be to mail the hosting company and report with evidence that a malicious material is being hosted on a server in there range with the ip 62.193.210.48


I would also suggest that you leave any real personal information from any attempt to shutdown a site such as this. Stopping an ebay scammer for instance is a different world from people that do this kind of thing.

Kudos to you all for trying to shut this down. I just moved it to The Cafe.

You can also contact ebay, and let them, they will do the necessary investigating and legal work.

Hmm... the page doesn't seem to be loading, so maybe that's a good sign.

I sent an email to spoof@ebay.com and reported it anyway. Here's eBay's "suspicious email" page.

Yeah, I figured it belonged there, but in my rush I just wanted to get it in front of as many people as possible.
