http://205.234.236.23/~ytrindic/

It's a server in Pakistan mzwebhost.com. Contacting their upstream provider.

I received 7 over the past two days. I forwarded them to Godaddy, but likely won't do any good.

If it had been one i would maybe have clicked but seen the redirect.
I havd already junked them as phishing and redirected one to godaddy support.

NP Pred. The email is very well constructed, also the form page itself that takes the username/password is exceptionally done. I submitted a few pairs such as "fbi_is_coming/sore_loser" - hopefully they will be shut down soon. Just complain using the form above.

That is bizarre. A hijacked domain perhaps? They aren't actually using their own domain are they? Would be pretty funny if so. :)

Looks like a root toolkit that can perform other penetration tasks remotely. Also it links to http://milw0rm.com which is a known repository of exploits. These ****ers need to be shut down.

Yea, DNFers, Mobility, NPers post on your twitter accounts also.

Many noobs (and veterans) may fall for this.

Phew, what a relief.

And to think I had to acually renew domain names.

Looks like the hacking tools have been removed. The IP that was sending the emails has also been turned off.

You and LegendaryJP need to start your own DN-PI service, you both have solid research skills. I know it's inevitable I'd send some cash your way. :D
