Friday's anti-phishing alarm
Got to the mailbox in Yandeks.Pochte's a sample:
Good day!
Someone (probably you) have the address hhhhhhhh@yandex.ru as
owned by the user to Yandex. If you do not
did you just delete this email and we'll never use
this address.In a system Yandex money you received the claim,
in connection with which your account is locked to clarify the situation.To view click here
This letter is written by a robot. Respond to it is not necessary.
-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------
Sincerely, Customer Support Yandex, suport@yandex.ru
Alerted immediately that the address is written with the error: "suport" instead of "support", and Yandex money, instead I ndeks.Dengi. Such errors do not allow robots Yandex.
Further, if you still click on the link, which absolutely can not do (secure copy and paste the address into your browser), we reach a page that looks absolutely identical to the login page to Yandex. Passport. Here are just a link to Yandex has nothing to do (http://sikorovvad.h18.ru/ya.html), you can see by the way, but their data do not enter :)
If you enter a nonexistent left-hand data box, the system shows that you have entered (!), Warn that your account (nesuschestvuyuschiy!) is blocked and kindly offer to enter your billing password. For example:
Clearly, in this case will go to your data if you enter them on this page? And also your money from the system?
We are dealing with phishing - deception in order to seize your payment information, logins and passwords to e-wallet.
Be careful. Never go to a reference in the letter, it is better to copy the link and enter it manually if you really want to see what's out there.
Keep in mind that experts from Yandex never on its own does not send emails. They only respond to your requests to customer support.
Turn on phishing. To do this in IE7:
Tools -> Phishing Filter -> Enable automatic checking of Web sites.
How to include anti-phishing protection in Mozilla Firefox 2:
Tools -> Options -> Security -> To inform, not suspected of a visited site in imitation of another site -> Check by asking Google about each site I visited.
How to include anti-phishing protection in Mozilla Firefox 3:

Phishing works in browsers: the browser periodically communicates with the server and downloads updates of phishing sites. Therefore, if new sites in the database and they do not exist only on the defense will not be. So be careful.

Last year, at a seminar on online advertising Yandex overheard the opinion of respected Yandeksoidov free classified ads sites. As the model was called the two sites, one of which - a poster board Slando. Once logged in, I can say that an informed opinion: place, which effectively solves its main task. I recommend to visit the section Slandosti, will not remain indifferent. By the way, the site can subscribe to the announcement of the desired topic. It is very convenient.
