<p>From the author's comment on the original article[1]<p>"This link could very well have been sent as spam or through a rogue ad. That’s not how I discovered it though. The phone number used in this scam matched one that I had tracked previously. It’s only after (by going to the root of that domain which was not protected) that I discovered that there was also a phishing scam in there."<p>[1].<a href="http://blog.malwarebytes.org/fraud-scam/2014/02/netflix-phishing-scam-leads-to-fake-microsoft-tech-support/#comment-6554" rel="nofollow">http://blog.malwarebytes.org/fraud-scam/2014/02/netflix-phis...</a>

<p>Actually, there are two spaces in the given example output as well.<p>Additionally, you could also use,<p><pre><code>  function spacify(str) {

  }
</code></pre>
to remove the additional space.</p>
