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??

Me too ....But I have a case, when I must accept the scam and click on
the pseudo url.
I have asked the creator of the SCAM - He told me that the real url is a
site who collect for statistic the number of clicks on his link THEN
redirect you on the url address shown.
So the browser is really and finally on the page of the address shown,
but detoured for a moment on another site who collect the click.
