LOL. When I read "the US doesn't expedite criminals from Italy", I just had to laugh. I know you meant "extradite", but I can just imagine the US hurrying criminals from Italy. Sorry, it must just have been one of things that struck me funny.

BTW, the ":80" just means port 80, which is the http protocol. The emailer probably put that in there so any email program would know it's an http link. I would be very cautious of subdomains - something like www.ebay.scam_artist.com. The ebay part looks good, but is just a subdomain of "scam-artist.com". Or, you hover over a link, and only an IP address appears in the status bar. Or, a javascript pseudo link call. All of these methods are commonly used.
