Phishing through Google
As a follow up to Phishing eBay through Doubleclick, here's an example of a Union Planters spoof linked through Google.
http://www.google.com/url?q=%68%74%74%70%3a%2f%2f211.5.200.10/unionplanters/
The URL bounces through Google (who could probably tell us how many users have clicked it) and lands on the spoof site:
http://211.5.200.10/unionplanters/
This isn't quite as dangerous as the eBay/Doubleclick redirects mentioned above, but Google's redirecting could make it easier for someone to phish Google adwords accounts in the future.
