My Humble Effort At Stopping Phishing

I mentioned somewhere on this forum that I am working on a project to stop phishing. As we all know, phishing means to create a fake login page that looks the same as the real page, but when you enter your login details on the phish page, all your login info gets saved somewhere on the internet (where the hacker then reads it).

There have been many efforts at stopping phishing. The most recent one being the login seal by Yahoo! I had long since a concept about a means to stop phishing and I have finally (apparently) succeeded in my effort. My site url is

My Anti-Phishing Page

Note that you really cannot stop a master web programmer from creating a page that looks exactly like yours. In this effort however, I think I have successfully stopped the script kiddies and novice hackers from easily creating a copy of any login page. Of course the seasoned web devs can definitely create a phish of my page.

All comments about my humble effort are highly welcome. Also, please try to create phish copies of my page and tell me how that goes Tongue

p.s. there is a surprise for anybody who tries to create a fake copy of my page. It is a pleasant surprise btw, nothing malicious or harmful. I will announce it once enough people have tried to phish my page Cool
