I'm not sure about you guys. But i've been getting fake email from ebay and paypal asking me to confirm my account information. And when you click on there link provided, if brings you to a site that logs your account name and password. This online stuff has been getting me concern about my credit card information on the net. Just a heads-up for all of you who shop online.

I think I read something about this, saying they use different character sets with the same letters (which have different computer codes) to make the url look real. So if you ever get one, don't click on the provided link if you are suspicious.
