hey guys and gals it seems there is a site out there that is stealing CC numbers. the domain is 2003marketing.com
DONT go there.

it starts out as an e-mail that is loaded with people prasing the site for helping them get gov grants of up to 25 grand. please pass this info to your clients/users/friends.
it looks like they are using a web site e-mail stripping script cause i got it sent to all of my e-mail address for one of my sites.

they use a unsecure form for your info and I did a trace route on it and it ends up in china.

trace route info of the last few hops

Directory Listing Denied
This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed.

Looks like they've been canned already, or are on the move.

Going by the name of the site and how they target their potential victims (spam) should be enough to tell you not to go there.

After a delay of about 20 seconds I get "Directory Listing Denied" like Greg.

You should also think to yourself why a site would require a payment in order to facilitate a grant.

Kind of like those letters you get in the mail saying that you've won a prize. Please send a cheque for $x to claim it.

I wasn't criticising - I was speaking generally (although it may have came across as being critical of you and I apologise if it did).

It's interesting to find out about all the scams going on - and also good to have warned people because unfortunately, people do get ripped off by these scams.
