Protecting Your Premium AccountWhat is 'phishing'? Phishing is an attempt to criminally and fraudulently acquire sensitive information, such as usernames, passwords and credit card details, by masquerading as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication.There has been a recent surge in the amount of topics the staff have had to trash and members banned due to attempts to steal members Rapidshare Premium Accounts. By typing your login and password into a phishing site, they will be able to steal your account. You will then need to go through Rapidshare Support to try and retrieve it.What to look for:   1. Most are hidden using Link Protector Sites or Link Redirectors such as TinyURL.2. When sent to a Rapidshare page, you click on PREMIUM, phishing sites will ask you to 'login', even though Rapidshare.com has already saved your login details   3. a) The correct web site address in the address bar at the top of your browser for a Rapidshare link looks like this:<img src="http://img32.picoodle.com/img/img32/4/3/10/f_address2m_7beab36.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />A Phishing site will use a different address, such as this one:<img src="http://img02.picoodle.com/img/img02/4/3/10/f_address1m_c3acc44.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />b) Check the properties using Internet Explorer. Right click on the page, then click on properties. If the address is not a correct Rapidshare link, then it is most likely a phishing site:<img src="http://img01.picoodle.com/img/img01/4/3/15/f_propertiesm_3cab926.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Certificates. Some sites will have what looks like an Authentic Certification for Security:<img src="http://img01.picoodle.com/img/img01/4/3/10/f_authoritym_b607d3a.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />But, if you move your cursor over it, it will show that it is obviously fake:<img src="http://img26.picoodle.com/img/img26/4/3/10/f_nomessagem_00d68c7.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Please note: This is not only a Rapidshare problem, there have also been reports from MegaShares and MegaUpload for Phishing attempts. Just remember, DO NOT enter your login details unless you are 100% certain that the link and website is legitimate.</blockquote>
