I noticed this yesterday, but Russell has the full story of what seems to be News24 being duped into pointing to a web site to gather credit card numbers. Seems quite possible with the generally impressionable and attention-seeking South African media. Of course, it could be scarier - maybe they just happen to be the only people to know of eBay being hacked (um, no?), and maybe the police really are running an unsecured Internet site with no obvious affiliation to the SAPS that asks people to enter their credit card details...
It basically breaks down to this - News24 and eTV (South African online news and television stations) are somehow the only news outlets in the entire world to cover a story on eBay being hacked. We all checked news.google.com, and no news stories followed.
Anyway, so the same individual that breaks the eBay hack news to News24 is suggesting to people that they visit 419legal.org, and there suggesting that they enter their credit card details to check if their credit card is in the list that is alleged to be from the eBay "hack".
The obvious problem is why the police would set up a web site entirely unrelated to their existing Internet infrastructure hosted by a private individual apparently from Durban on servers hosted in the United States?
For more sordid details, check Russell's ongoing analysis.
