Goodness knows I don't want to have any "frequently fraud" transactions--might jeopardize my "capitals in safety" (whatever the @#$%^ that means).

SHEESH.

Jeeze!! Why can't these idiots just give up and go the f*** away!!

maybe they need some money to buy a Large Oxford Dictionary of Contemporary English,

lmao
or a boost your iq book

Kanarek LOL!!!

LOL at Karanek or kanarek

ok to the more serious issue

it looks like the right address www.e-gold.com

how they clone it or make it look like it???

Kanarek - it means "canary bird".

And cloaking the real link is not difficult, especially when you are sending an html email. All you have to do is add another link to a text marked as hyperlink.

Like this (you may click it, it is harmless)

https://www.e-gold.com/login/acc.asp

Hiding a real address of a site and replacing it with another is also no big deal

It is a bit more difficult with plain text emails but also possible. Just do a searsch on mail cloaking, mail privacy, and e-mail masking
