This is a horrific idea.
I thought I am immune to this kind of exploit thanks to my technical knowledge. Not so, nearly. I once found a good price on skyscanner.com that directed me a site called BookingHouse, that in turn used a "man-in-the-middle as a service" company called mistertango.com that proceeded to ask me for ... my e-banking credentials. I had to slam the mental brakes hard to avoid typing out my credentials on this page, and realised how vulnerable you are when you are conditioned to following instructions as fast as you can (don't want to lose those sweet-priced tickets!).
This mistertango.com service even goes as far as "interactively" asking for your 2nd factor code! I thought it was surreal.
Notified BookingHouse, SkyScanner. No reaction.
