    Hey guys!! I got a mail from Moneybookers... But the thing was, it was a scam!!!

    The mail redirected to http://www.moneybookerrss.com and it collects MB information

    If anyone also faced this, please report...

    Just found out that the domain is owned by Host MOnster.com!!

    Thanks for useful info. But keep one thing always in your mind that if you want to remain safe then never click any link in any email. Better to go that website by typing fresh url in your browser. I always prefer that to do.

    Correct always look for https:// in the address bar. Just report it to the moneybookers.

    That's ur fault...Please try to complain to MB and next time make sure:-

    1. There is a lock of security certificate issued to mb in ur browser
    2. the url is correct
    3. and before moneybookers.com there is https:// instead of http://

    Yes, but in the mail it was moneybookers.com itself..

    But once you get a page similar to moneybookers then you'll just go on...

    Then I noticed the rr and ss

    That's a phishing email... change your password and contact Moneybookers.
