We all get phishing emails all the time, and, for all of us here I dare say, it's easy to spot these cockroaches. You know, (1) hover the mouse over the header to see the real email address, and (2) never click on anything in the email, no matter how authentic it looks.

Got one this morning from "Wells Fargo Online" claiming a money transfer request was made, and to click here to cancel if you didn't make the transfer. So, hovering over the header, I knew right away it ain't WF. But the click here part is what puzzled me. The "here" is the actual WF website's url, all correctly spelled out. Of course I didn't click on it because of rule #2. Went on the actual WF website and checked, and there was nothing unusual going on. So, question is, how do these scumbags accomplish the scam by putting WF's url in the email?

Here's how to fake an URL:
