Awkward.  It seems the fake Paypal spam virus had found its way onto

I received a similar message, sent from a DHCP box at the University of 
Houston, pointing to a falsified PayPal site hosted on a hidden folder 
at pcgroom.com.  I have notified both the University (address and 
date/time the message was sent, for cross-referencing with DHCP cache) 
and the owners of the site.  Help fight spam - do the same!

It's funny because I don't even have a PayPal account. ;)

I tried to notify the real Paypal that someone was posing at them, but
they didn't even have an abuse address...

Don't worry, enough people have quoted the entire mail in their replies
for several copies to get through.

Can someone bring them here.  I have some rope and a lot of tall trees.  
We'll hang him by the bal**.  If it is a lady, we'll find something else 
to hang them by.  I bet if this was done publically and routinely, they 
would give it more thought before starting this crap.  Do they ever 
really catch these jerks?

I usually go to the site and just make up some crap, for the ones that 
want user name a passwords anyway.  I must confess, I didn't click on 
the link this time.  ;)

At least this way, they send one email and a ton of people get it.  LOL

I routinely check full headers so that I can make sure that I know where
