An Ebay scam
I just sent the following message to mfn.net. I hope it achieves the desired result.
Today I received the following email from a user of your network. Not only is it spam, it is also a dangerous hoax attempting to make users think that they are using ebay to enter credit card, bank, anbd other personal info. A traceroute to www.ebaybillingservice.com terminates on your network -
19 * 741 ms 742 ms pos1-0.mpr5.sjc2.us.mfnx.net [208.185.156.66]
20 741 ms 741 ms 741 ms pos4-1.er8a.sjc2.us.mfnx.net [208.184.210.22]
21 * * * Request timed out.
Can you block their IP address? The sooner the better - no telling how many people might fall for this scam.
A search of their DNS record reveals the following:
