Delta Airlines phishing email[^]
Henry Minute Do not read medical books! You could die of a misprint. - Mark Twain Girl: (staring) "Why do you need an icy cucumber?" “I want to report a fraud. The government is lying to us all.” I wouldn't let CG touch my Abacus! When you're wrestling a gorilla, you don't stop when you're tired, you stop when the gorilla is.

Talking of airlines, anyone seen the story of the flight from India that stopped in Vienna and the pilot made each passenger hand over 130 quid in cash to pay the airport so the plane could continue to Birmingham. The plane was already 4 days late leaving India.

This is because the airports have surcharge for the extra passengers sitting on the wings and the fuselage. :-D

Well people are so stupid they don't know where any country is until we invade it. I had someone I work with not know where China is. Total mouth breather.

the email contains no obvious typos. Overall, this phishing attempt is well done
I'm sorry, but I find this pathetic. How hard is it to take an actual email from an airline - one that's been carefully proofread and edited by the airline itself - and simply replace links with phishing links? The state of affairs in the phishing industry is woeful if they get congratulations for using a spell checker. They should be ashamed of themselves.

I've noticed that now, when my bank sends me emails, there are actually no links at all. They say to go to their website and log in rather than having a link at all... emails do not include links to sign-in pages, or ask for your personal security information. For more information on security, Makes sense.

Well, I think Delta deserves it. I have 128,000 frequent flyer miles with them that they refuse to honor, simply because it's been 20 years since I've flown with them. Yet they continue to send me snail mail reminding me of my available balance, with an offer to add to my miles if I apply for a Delta credit card. Screw 'em.

Wait. What? People paid extra so they could get to Birmingham from Vienna? :wtf: I'd be paying them not to take me the extra leg. :)

It wasn't the pilot's fault; the airline could not pay the fees, even though they claim to be solvent.
