Here follows a good observation from our forum friend Pondus on how shortened urls are brought into play by the malcreants:

if one uses the short url (-http://nacha-updates.org) you get this...nada and IP in Korea http://urlquery.net/report.php?id=1737949 http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/nacha-updates.org

using the full url (-http://nacha-updates.org/news/04012013.php) then IP is changed to South Africa
http://urlquery.net/report.php?id=1737957
http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/nacha-updates.org/news/04012013.php and sucuri now sees a redirect

Pondus, thanks for these observations. Website analysts should be aware of these"uri-games"…
