You know that phishing is illegal and counts as a felony right? But whatever, phishing is the act of redirecting a browser to a fake website where it asks for confindential information.

Such a website is usually called a "phishing website" because users are usually sent to them via a phishing message. It can also be legitimately called a "malicious website" because the information harvested from it is then usually used as part of an identity theft.
You do not need software to make a phishing website. You simply need a web server and an identical copy of the website in question (with a few changes so the data in the fields go to you). I can't describe it as it is illegal in most countries.
absolutely not. It is a phishing and credit card scam site.
The srfoosecars.com website certainly looks dodgy and it is most likely a fraud (possibly a phishing site).
Phishing websites are made to look exactly like the real thing. They are intended to trick people into thinking they are viewing a popular website (perhaps a shopping site, email, credit card provider, etc.) that they probably use. If the person logs in at the phony website, the phishers will get their user name and password, which allows the criminals to use that login information on the real site. The best way to avoid getting fooled by a phishing website is to always enter the complete URL of any site you visit.
