CRAPPYCOMPANIES.com FEATURES: 

BELLSOUTH.NET is presently (11/16/2006 - 2:31AM) permitting their network to be used by some FELONS to perpetrate a PFISHING expedition to lure unsuspecting consumers to give up their PayPal IDs and passwords.
I started calling BellSouth's Network Operations Center about 2AM last night (11/15/06) gave them all the info and they REFUSED to do anything to stop these spamming scammers. you can try the URL yourself - but DON'T put in any info...... http://adsl-070-154-067-128.sip.chs.bellsouth.net/PayPal-New/index.html

Here are the pictures of the documents that I sent to their New Orleans Executives early on 11/15/06. 

When you click on the link to "update your account information you are redirected to 
http://adsl-070-154-067-128.sip.chs.bellsouth.net/PayPal-New/index.html
which is impersonating the real pay-pal site as depicted below. 

Unfortunately AOL's Netscape product doesn't say anything. 

The following picture was NOT sent to Bellsouth's executives (yet) because I just did the screen print a few moments ago.

FireFox, on the other hand has a neat little display feature

Question: If FIREFOX knows that this has been reported as a web forgery, how come Bellsouth.net doesn't know and why doesn't Bellsouth.Net remove this FELON's access from their network

Bigger Question: If FIREFOX knows that this has been reported as a web forgery and can alert the user, how come MicroSoft with all of its BILLION$ and BILLION$ and BILLION$ of dollars can't do it? 
I just tested this website with Internet Explorer and IE would be happy as a lark to let the FELONS PFISH my identity away....  Hmmmmm
 

I personally spoke with Leo Marsh  at Bellsouth's New Orleans "Executive Escalations department" and my e-mail to him was receipted by him as follows:

It is truly a pity and an injustice that Bellsouth apparently doesn't care that this FELON is utilizing their system to scam people and that they are either negligent in stopping this FELON or obstinate in their refusal to stop this FELON.

SHAME ON YOU BELLSOUTH.NET!

This is an ongoing problem with a lot of Internet Service Providers (ISPs). When some FELONS decide to put up scamming websites in the early evening or the beginning of a weekend the ISPs just want you to "send an e-mail to abuse@...." where thousands of people are e-mailing pissy spam complaints and such. 

When people like me take the time and trouble to make long distance phone calls to say 
"Hey, ISP, you need to take IMMEDIATE action to stop these FELONS" 
they will say something like "well the abuse department isn't a 24/7 operation..." 
to which I say "WHY THE FUCK NOT?" If the FELONS are operating 24 hours then the ISP should staff their ANTI-FRAUD department with dedicated personnel able to shut them down at a moment's notice  24/7 when someone that cares calls the ISP and notifies them!

PLEASE - keep in mind that this is not ONLY BellSouth.net, but many many major ISPs. This is something that we the people need to start bitching about in a big way. When we point out these FELONS the ISP should not only immediately turn them off, but they should take it upon themselves to notify the FBI and/or SECRET SERVICE and have these FELONS prosecuted. They should not sit by complacently and let the FELONS keep on scamming. My feeling is that once they are notified, if they don't immediately shut down the website or internet access the ISP's officers should be able to be PROSECUTED  as ACCESSORIES to the crime.
