	Phishing Alert: Internal Revenue (FAO Todd Towles)

Accordng to your friends, this was disclosed on the 30th of November
to the Online Media Community? If you look back at my original
phishing advisory, you'll see people were saying "old news, go away".
If its such old news, why did WSLabs in less than 24 hours issue an
advisory? Get real, its totally related to my FD post.

I continue to work as a security researcher behind the scenes with
Gooogle, Yahoo, WS and others
