I've been getting phishing email with supposed goodies. These emails come with an image...click anywhere in the image and you get hyperlinked to tiny.cc URLs. I've been trashing them, but I'd link to search for them in the Trash folder. When I try to Search the folder, none of the search locations, even Body, find these emails when using "tiny.cc" as a search argument. I guess because they are embedded in the html image. One such attached, see the highlighted embedded hyperlink at the bottom
