MT. GOX PHISH SITE REPORTED: ltgox.com

[ErgoOne]

There is a live Mt. Gox phish site at the domain ltgox dot com.  I just saw this on Twitter:

   @mikko: Bitcoin users, note that "ltgox ․ com" hosts a live Mt.Gox phishing site. Stores
               stolen logins to "/home/ddancom/". Oh, hello there @ddancom

I have a tool for investigating malware and phish sites, so I opened the URL.  It is live as of 17:46 UTC (9:46 AM on the U.S. west coast.)  Do NOT be fooled.

By the way, @mikko is Mikko Hypponen, who works for Finnish company F-Secure and is one of the top malware and security experts in the world.  @ddancom is presumably the phisher.

How lame. It uses the old site template, and doesn't even redirect to the real site once credentials are entered.

P.S., spam this guys database with fake credentials.

It's probably a waste of time to spam the fake credentials.  Even on a Saturday, with Mikko Hypponen on the case, it'll be down soon.  Also, Spamhaus just listed the IP that hosts the site.

But if it makes you feel good....
