How to get Personal Information from Morons, Part II

Saturday I spent a few minutes messing with a phishing site that was trying to mess with me, webspyapp.com. I stopped at the point that it wanted a cell number, and rejected made-up ones. I didn't have a number I was willing to give them in order to receive their texts. This morning a colleague donated his recently-disused number, so I gave it another shot.

I ended up at http://gtoffers.com/coreg/entry.php?p=bg266533g6&sid=p1&limit=2&phone=7178914944&redirect=http%3A%2F%2Fofferlabs.com%2Fc.php%3Fa%3D119%26o%3D183%26sid%3Dp1&head=http://d18j1d26sau8be.cloudfront.net/user_images/13016043631131154035370.png, which tried to install a browser extension.

At this point I stopped.

I am baffled that people still fall for this one.
