Can you spot the fake web site?

Amazon.com?
How good are you at spotting a scammer web site? Sure, it's easy enough to do when you can take a look at the URL or scroll your mouse over links to see where they really lead. But can you tell just by looking at an image of a web site or email message whether it's the real thing?

McAfee has a little 10 question quiz to test your web savvy. Bet you don't get all 10 right. We scored a 9 out of 10, which is pretty good - but it only takes one wrong move to have your identity stolen.

Of course, McAfee's trying to get you to download their SiteAdvisor product, but it's a free download anyway.
