another way to check the authenticity of a site - when it asks for your password to log in - type something stupid in - if it lets you in - then its not a true site - did this with Ebay - and if it is a bad site - report it to the correct and legitimate site...

I like to do that with the hoaxers who try to con me. I type in obscenities as my username & password, then enter a whole slue of insults for my other details that they're after.

This kinda stuff should be taught in schools; my IT lessons consisted of looking at porn sites and doing a spreadsheet for something to do with a dentist?! What do they teach kids these days?.....
