[PHISHING/SPAM] You have 1 personal message from YouTube

>>>> Following is a new PHISHING/SPAM mail claiming to be from YouTube Service!!!
But it is not from YouTube....its just a trick to make you click on the link!!

The web page at the link http://164.125.9.9/~haneulgun/cutthroat.html redirects to a drug site : http://controlpills.net
But the site seems to be offline now!

The IP/Domain of the link http://164.125.9.9/~haneulgun/cutthroat.html (http://164.125.9.9) seemingly belong to The Pusan National University, Korea (http://www.pusan.ac.kr).

I found a similar attack was reported by a YouTube user at: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/youtube/thread?tid=7a87dcefbbf52df7&hl=en

But in that case the final destination is said to be :
http://pillpillspharmacy.net/
The site also found to be down now!
