Subject: Another false Citibank e-mail...a new phishing?

Phishing mails don't have any need to use the %01 exploit if they can get
gullible people to click on a link in an email message that just has a plain
IP address as this one does.
That IP address has reverse lookup to
218-36-71-193.rev.krline.net
which has whois information
Registrant:

========================================

Why do you think Citibank would use an ISP in Korea to check accounts? It is
an obvious phishing expedition.
The only thing new is that is using SSL for the connection to the scamp web
site to allow people to feel that it is somehow secure.

I receveid this bad-spoofed-Citibank e-mail,
which points to a PHP page which ask 
for credit card number..........and stole it!!!
Is it the next phishing e-mail ? 

The link points to http://218.36.71.193:443/citi/

It does not use "%01" exploit to show a spoofed-URL in the Explorer bar.
