MCAFEE's site advisor service has created a 10-question test to see whether you can spot "phishing" attempts to steal passwords and other personal information by mimicking popular websites such as eBay's PayPal and MySpace.
In eight questions, you are presented with two websites or e-mail messages and asked to identify the authentic one.The final two questions test your general knowledge about scams.

Ah, yes. I remember this test from CNET. I think I missed 4 the first time I took the test. :o
Here's another test for you: https://www.paypal.com/fightphishing It only has 5 questions, and isn't as hard as the McAfee test, but it's extra practice. :)
