!!!! Don't enter your eBay ID and password!!!!
The following eBay auction does a redirect and places you in an eBay like logon page. I imagine it then grabs your ID and password.
Looks like the hackers are ahead of eBay's security.
Again... DON"T PUT IN YOUR PASSWORD.

Wow.
At least Firefox warned me something was fishy.

Huh. Firefox picks up on it and gives you a really obvious warning, graying out the screen and opening a huge balloon window.

IE7's phishing filter also catches it.
Still, sad to think that other people had to get taken in by it before it was reported as a phishing site.

Thats the first time I've seen it, pretty cool.
Good reason to move to Firefox 2 or IE7 then. I wonder what the lag time is between one of these appearing and getting reported in the browser.

For me it was more or less instantaneous. However, the phishing page did render fully before it popped over to the blocker page, long enough to see its content. (Y'all should warn us when clicking on a link is not worksafe!)
