In response to news about a large amount of harvested emails being spread around the Internet, I created a site to do a quick lookup against a list of known-leaked addresses. Despite what Neowin’s ignorant audience claims, it’s not fake nor a site to harvest email addresses.
Hopefully this post will clarify the site’s intentions and purpose.
neowin is bias.
but yes I was. not sure if it was part of this, but I do know some little 16 year old kids had something to do with it.
lol @ neowin comment.
neowin is FULL of kids.
Thanks for taking the time to do that.
Thanks for confirming :p
clever – the site may be genuine but now all it takes someone to hack your server and grab copy of your httpd log file and write another LIKE query to extract all addresses from GET parameters logged in the log file…
You’re assuming I didn’t turn that off.
or potential reverse proxy in between or other loggers … but wait those log everything anyways so moot point. maybe im too paranoid about something which is public already..,
But he can’t get hacked…
C:\Documents and Settings\The MAZZTer>wget –spider -S http://www.wasiphished.com/

Server: Apache/2.2.11 (Unix) [...]
He runs LINUX!* ** http://xkcd.com/272/
(* – And Apache, too!)
(** – Yes I know Linux is technically hackable if someone really really wanted to but don’t ruin my funny.)
A great service, but how about a one line brief about what it actually does on the page. Also, there needs to be feedback if you put only your username in as input that you need your full email address.
OpenDNS currently flags that domain as a phishing site.
