Coincidentally enough, here is an article in sfgate.com
with a link to a quiz by McAfee to see if you can spot
the phony website/email:

The best way for users to help keep themselves safe is
definitely more awareness. I have to admit I missed a couple
because I didn't carefully read through the whole site. Most of us
just look at the general graphics and layout and then just assume it is
the correct site.
Have fun!
