Credit card fraud keeps growing on the Net is the headline in the May 11, 2007 version of the International Herald Tribune. PhishTank’s April 2007 statistics earned a mention.
Statistics from Phishtank, an antiphishing network, found that last month alone some 77,709 phishes were sent out, with 19 percent originating in the United States, 15 percent in France, 14 percent in Turkey and 10 percent from South Korea.
“This is a global problem,” said David Ulevitch, the founder of Phishtank, whose data is now being used by Yahoo to help make the Internet safer.
Note: the printer-friendly version has everything on one page. The PhishTank reference is page 2 of the article, otherwise.
