Poor Steve Dodge appears to be the latest victim of the website phishing going on with domain name structuredsettlementusa.com

Here's my pal Steve on the legitimate website

Here's my pal Steve on the phishing site

http://www.structuredsettlementusa.com/contact.php

Our technology experts say the following:

Somebody took (copied) all the static content and images altogether, construct the Phishing website and hosted with the name of www.structuredsettlementusa.com on a different Host machine.

In the case of what they did to 4structures.com (no longer a problem)

They did the following activities from our static data.

• Replaced 4structures.com text to structuredsettlementusa.com entire front end content.
• Took all the available images from 4structures.com and place them to their website local path.
• Converted all jsp pages to php pages, simply file extension changed.

A similar thing has happened to the website of Preferred Settlements, Inc.

Seems like these folks are working their way through the structured settlement industry, grabbing content and hoping to sponge banner ad income off other people's work and goodwill. What a bunch of sleaze bags!

If you fall victim to a structuredsettlementusa.com "heist" you can file a complaint with
KVC hosting. Under the Digital Millenium Copyright Act you can bring action against a host for hosting infringing content on its servers.  With us they were very fast to act.  email abuse@kvchosting.com.

Good luck Steve-O. I wonder who these creeps will hit next.
