Such phantom field may imply a singularity in a future finite time, called big rip. Studying the evolution of scalar perturbations for such a field, we show that if the pressure is negative enough, the Universe can become highly inhomogeneous and this phantom menace may be avoided.Latex file, 5 pagesAstrophysicsGeneral Relativity and Quantum CosmologyHigh Energy Physics - Theorytext
