I received another Ebay scam email. You know, the ones that try to steal your banking and credit information.

Usually, I'll find out who the host is and report them to the IP host ownership.

This time, I had one that linked to a site called: Mamoon.org. A WHOIS look-up revealed that this site was in Jordan and owned by Mamoon Abu Taweelih.

So now I wonder if this is one of the ways terrorsits are trying to finance their operations. Needless to say, all information was forwarded to the Department of Homeland Security.
