Facebook Phishing

Be on the lookout for this one: http://informednetworker.com/blog/2008/08/09/danger-facebook-phish/

This just happened to me, someone wrote on my wall with a link, I click on it, and it leads to the Facebook login screen, only it's a phishing site attempting to steal my password. I, luckily, realized what was going on by checking the URL (it goes to http://www.faceilbook.com). I'm not sure if this is new, Google gave me only one search result, and it was from another blog post 53 minutes ago, the one that I linked to above. Keep your eyes open people.

The message looks like:
Somebody wrote something really funny in their blog about you . everybody see it here http://charleneko***.blogspot.com

The URL is different each time, but it redirects to http://www.faceilbook.com.
