GMail Exploit

Someone has figured out a way to make a Google URL do just about anything they want by using an exploit. The page that they “created” is located here:

http://www.google.com/u/gplus

and disguises itself to be an upcoming GMail Plus service. This is a “scam” in some sense because it is not actually for any Google service, instead, the next page will tell you

You (could have) gotten served!

MyUserName = username you entered
MyPassword = password you entered No data was actually taken, just displayed to you :) This is just a proof of concept of what a malicious user could do with this exploit.

So the people are actually nice enough not to steal the information that you entered but they are doing it more for a proof-of-concept.
