mezzicodec(dot)net masquerades as the legitimate CastleCops site… The site is mirroring, in near real-time, CastleCops. It seems to be primarily used for SEO purposes and possibly to steal valid user accounts, but could serve malware or exploits. Avoid this site."

May 22, 2008 - "As a follow-up to my post earlier today about a fake CastleCops page, there’s more to the story. There are other domains sharing the same IP ([removed]):
pepato org
slim-cash com
spyware-wiper com
Cpaypal com
Crazycounter net
All are copying legitimate sites. Pepato is loading a fake dvdplanet.com page… These domains belong to the "Vladzone" malware gang. A while back, we believe that they were responsible for DDoS attacks against webhelper4u.com (Patrick Jordan, who works for Sunbelt) and spamhuntress.com — and maybe a few others. I would not visit these sites."
