bundespol.com is not the Bundespolizei

Another fake Bundespolizei today, bundespol.com is registered through  a Chinese registrar and then is anonymised through a Chinese WHOIS privacy service

The site doesn't resolve yet, but it is almost identical to bundespol.net which is fingered in this attack. In that case, the fake Bundespolizei site was hosted on 188.229.97.2 which is Netserv Consult SRL in Romania (incidentally, blocking 188.229.0.0/17 will probably do you no harm).

There's a whole bunch of fake Bundespolizei at the moment, but I'm guessing that this particular bunch of scammers may well try the same thing in other countries very soon.
