[...] if a website or URL is used for phishing. Just recently, Abe Olandres was almost tricked by a new breed of Gmail phishing scam, good thing he was using Firefox which immediately detected it to be a phishing site. [...]

Well how about this one

“http://www2.gmail.net.au/mail/src/login.php”

and where would I go to check?

Please note this site looks nice and clean;
I got to it from the best looking option (the 5th entry from the top) on the Google results page on an “extremely” clean Firefox install, so it wasn’t just results from a bad browsing record.
{Worth mentioning just because it is so hilariously extreme:
Just installed Xandros4.0 OCE on a fresh partition, looked for OO (not installed!), printed a .PS file I needed off another partition (XP had no .PS viewer native), plugged the network cable in, fired up Firefox and typed “gmail login” in the search box; now that is clean!}

Good thing you had Firefox! Even if the URL was a giveaway, the scheme is really smart. I’m sure this email has fooled some Gmail users already. I’ve never received any Gmail phishing emails, what I got were PayPal phishing emails.

The link was a dead giveaway.

Still, 100GB of Gmail is very tempting, what’s the current space right now? A little over 3GB? Woot!

Sounds true.

I agree that gmail-members.com is enough. Nice scheme, ;D.

I can’t access the site now, probably suspended. ;D

@Jon, true. I seriously doubt that Google will ask you to enter your Google Account credentials elsewhere. Besides, I haven’t even filled up my 2.9 GB of GMail space.

I’m surprised. The gmail-members.com domain should’ve been enough Abe.
