Yes. The difference is the second case displays a URL, but the first
does not. A user seeing "Fritz" knows it's not a URL and will never be
fooled into thinking that's the target, but a user seeing
"http://www.microsoft.com"; may be fooled into thinking he's already
seeing the target. So only the second can be a scam.

I know, this is a busy, busy, world, we're all go go go, but before I click on any link, I look at the bottom of the SM screen, where SM displays the real link address!

Am I the only one??
