Title: Netcraft Toolbar
Post by: Thing [vL] on May 09, 2005, 10:41 AM
For you IE users, grab this and check it out.
http://toolbar.netcraft.com/install

Even though I don't use IE, I did install this toolbar on it so I can use it to report phishing sites.  I made my first report today and hopefully, will be receiving my fabulous prize very soon.

./edit  WOOT!  While I was typing this message, I got this email from Netcraft:

QuoteThe URL you recently submitted has been accepted as a phishing site by
the Netcraft Anti-Phishing Team. In recognition of your vigilance, we
would like to reward you with a small prize. Please reply to this mail
with your postal address and we will send it to you (allow 28 days for
delivery).

Thanks and congratulations,

Update:

I tried to go back to the site and got this popup from the toolbar.  Damn, they are fast!

The postal address I used is my office address so no big deal there.  I think the uber prize is either a coffee mug or a new sports car.  Naturally, I will provide pics of the prize
