Almost got caught- phishing
I came *really close* to giving my email password to a phisher this morning- got an email titled "Steve Sharp shared a file "RV Order.pdf" with you on dropbox.
Then a "view file" icon.
Thinking this sounded legit, I clicked on the icon, bringing up a login box to dropbox- log in using gmail, yahoo, etc. Started to log in via gmail, when it hit me- dohh!!!
Looking at the domain- it was a completely non-related domain.
Now I go back and enter rather rude email addresses and passwords in the fields, which it happily takes. I'm afraid I use some bad words :)
Anyway- be alert!
