New Phishing Expedition


I recently received four email messages from AudiogoN (sic) (info@app-audlogon.com) informing me that user joeabrams initiated a conversation with me. Clicking on the link brought me to the 2012 version of Audiogon's login page which started raising alarms. Closer inspection revealed that the page was unsecured and after entering some fake login details the page redirects to Audiogon's actual webpage.

Yahoo! mail did not automatically blacklist this so it's probably new, and so I thought I'd share it with youse.

electrontinkerer,

I just sent you a message through the Agon message system.


Title:

Test, this is only a test.


Is my agon message email the same as the others you received?

Nope, your email address looks legit and has a format consistent with the other genuine emails I've received from the Audiogon email system.

Your message also appears in my "Messages" pane (the fake messages didn't).

I received the same phishing e-mails, also allegedly from joeabrams.
I notified Audiogon of the scam.
