Re: [Phish] Bellsouth webmail

said by Doctor Olds See Profile :

Yes and no as most phish emails don't give you the option of:

"You can also confirm your email address by logging into your BELLSOUTH Webmail"

Which doesn't ask for your password that I can see in the plain text posted by the OP.
Yes, but the asking of the password immediately sets off the "phish-o-meter". Chances are, the link to the Bellsouth webmail was fake as well. To which, you log in, and they then have your password.

No company in this day and age will ask you for your password through email, and if they do, are not worth dealing with.
