Another paypal scam

On a whim I decided to follow this one..

It linked to http://www.login-paypal-world.com
Interesting reply from whois:

No match for "LOGIN-PAYPAL-WORLD.COM".

But the gtld nameservers are more helpful:

login-paypal-world.com name server pdomns2.msn.com.
login-paypal-world.com name server pdomns1.msn.com.

And it points at:

www.login-paypal-world.com has address 65.54.132.254

Which is hosted by.. microsoft.

Yeah, abuse@microsoft.com. I'd like a usable answer to my previous queries.

Anyway. Asking for it:

Later the forward stopped, but the page at the redirect is still up.

A nice redirect to 213.136.105.66 where they have built a complete mockup
of the paypal login page, with all the right buttons pointing at the right
places at paypal.

213.136.105.66 is at afrinic..

Some ISP in Cote d' Ivoire (sometimes home to a certain kind of people
from Nigeria with interesting financial propositions)

The submit is to

http://213.136.105.66/www.paypal.com/account/loginsubmit.php
which redirects to

http://213.136.105.66/www.paypal.com/account/loginsubmit.htm

This page looks like an 'error in your login data' page and asks for the
same login/password again. Funny is that they forgot to copy a pixel from
paypal or forgot to point at the right one, giving 404 errors and a somewhat
distorted page (in firefox).

The page submits the data to

http://213.136.105.66/www.paypal.com/account/processing.php

Which redirects to (this is a pattern..)

http://213.136.105.66/www.paypal.com/account/processing.htm

Which gives an advert for a new 'immediate Paypal payment' option.

Another 'continue' button, which gets (using an 'onload' form)

http://213.136.105.66/www.paypal.com/account/agreement.htm?Continue=Continue

with a bit about updated terms and conditions (loads of legalese. I did not
check for 'you just gave us access to all your paypal funds, thank you
very much' hidden in there).

And next comes up a page
http://213.136.105.66/www.paypal.com/account/pp.htm?Submit=Submit

(hey, I never clicked on one of those 'yes, I agree'
buttons..) asking for every last detail such as social security number,
mother's maiden name, drivers license, credit card number and pin for the
credit card. They do their identity theft seriously!

Oops, forgot to fill in the form. Wow, there is a real check for a CC number
in it (16 digits) and other checks for pin lenght, the works. I was not
in the mood to find nonsense values for those. So I asked for the handler at
http://213.136.105.66/www.paypal.com/account/login.php

which redirected to

http://213.136.105.66/www.paypal.com/account/Complete.htm

which says...

"Your information submitted successfully! Your information will be
reviewed shortly."

And a link to 'paypal home' at the real http://www.paypal.com/

Makes me wonder where all that information is sent..

the form name used is 'mailbomber' and a google search for 'paypal' and
'mailbomber' shows that this is a well-known script for paypal account
phishing.
