bogus scam email I got disguised as spam. Actually yahoo spam filter caught it and put it in my spam box. But I was shocked. Damn they make this shit look pretty authentic. I thought the @ sign in a URL was for a username for http. How does this work? Is it a bug in explorer or does it work on any browser?

I've never seen a URL like this, it looks valid from that domain but is not. Anyone ever seen that? Probably common I'm just not a HTML guru. Click on it and see what it does. .just don't put in your paypal information. .it will end up draining your account.
