GODzillaSDM from the psphacks forums posted something so blatantly obvious that I don'’t think any of us had thought of it before. It is definitely something I want to bring to the attention of the public, so please discuss this in our forums here.

I was thinking, with the wipeout browser, going onto other people's portal, isn't it easy for scammers to phish for your information?

For example, someone sets up a portal, and shows a link that will go to yahoo mail. However, the link is actually his own site, that looks like yahoo mail, and asks u to enter login and password. Can't he easily phish for your info that way?

Is surfing on PSP secure? Since you can't see the address bar when you visit sites. What do you guys think?

I never thought of that but I really should of. For MSN I just use e-messenger mobile, and I've been using that for ages. It's secure. Thanks for posting it, I will be more wary in the future.
