... I hear that this is a sneaky way of stealing an lj password. Of course, I've only seen this in one place (http://www.livejournal.com/users/thebitingfaery/256323.html?mode=reply). Worth checking out though.
Hmm, that's a good question. My guess is that after the scam went away, the entry I linked to was deleted because it was superfluous. Or maybe there never was any danger.
Good to know, though, thanks. :) I figured that's how they were doing it, otherwise I would've gone back and deleted the post so nobody else clicked it -- but I did have a moment of oh-my-god-what-have-i-done panic there when I first clicked the link and saw the "entry posted" page. :P
