Luckily he is a friend and told me about it. And a few days later i had an idea, wouldnt be wise always when you´re in doubt to enter your username and a FAKE password (or both fake)?? If the link is the correct one you will know when it appears the WRONG USERNAME OR PASSWORD. If some other message appears (as an error) it would be very probable it´s a phishing.

If they're not the same, stop. If you get an email from Company X, and you click on the link, and spoofstick only has numbers (IP address) instead of Company X's website, you _know_ it's a phishing email.
