Re: [Phishing] ALERT!! New Vicious PAYPAL phishing

I think the answer is that the Phishing site is connecting as though they are a customer and screen washing to get the info from PayPal's reply.

This whole deal is pretty nasty.

Cant paypal block requests for authorization from off of thier servers?

Example:

I go to paypal.com. Paypal.com wants my login info, so if that ip is requesting to thier server to authenticate, cant they block auth requests from anything but paypal.com's ip?
