e-Gold Phish

We have received some emails, with a notification about unusual behaviour on our account, and that we need to verify our identity. Of course you get a convenient link to check your credentials. If we check the real address you can see that

REAL LINK: https://www.e-gold.com/acct/login.html -> 209.200.169.10 -> Melbourne, FL (USA)

 FAKE LINK: https://www.e-gold.com/acct/login.html -> xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -> South Korea

Of course once you follow the link, you get to a fake login e-Gold page, which is quite similar to the real one. After typing your personal data, you get redirected to the real e-Gold site, so that you don't notice what has happened.

So, be careful!
