like a nifty toy to do that with.

http://www.usernamecheck.com/ is a simple website that shows where you
have a username registered (checks against 75 different sites). To a
normal web user, this probably seems bengin, but from the attacker POV
this is gold.
Pauldotcom - registered on 13 sites, that leaves at least 62
opportunities for social engineering.
