Ebay is reported to have a problem on it’s site that permits a phishing scammer to link directly to Ebay and in turn Ebay redirects to the phished site. According to C|Net, that hole may soon dry up. Seems like it could be done in several hours, what is taking days? The big boys (and girls) can join all the anti-phishing initiatives they want, but when they are allowing their own sites to be used to further the illegal activity, they need to act faster than days to shut it down, especially when as like this one, the word is out that the exploit exists.
