PayPal most phished, Facebook most blocked


Posted on 25 January 2011.

OpenDNS released statistics about which websites were commonly blocked and which websites users were frequently given access to - in 2010. The report additionally details the companies online scammers targeted in 2010, as well as where the majority of phishing websites were hosted.
...

snippet:

.... PayPal continues to be the most frequent target of phishing websites; it was targeted nine times more frequently than the next most frequent target, Facebook; 45 percent of all phishing attempts made in 2010 were targeting PayPal. ...

So much (again) for Donahoe's blatantly false claim that PP phishing is down by a whopping 80%.
Not to mention the fact that ebay employees themselves fell victim to phishing attacks and caused millions of dollars of loss to eb-pp and the users.   laughing.gif
