Silly Phishing Scam Warns That Your Password Will be Changed

A silly phishing campaign is underway where the attackers state that your password will expire and be changed unless you login and confirm that you want to keep it the same.

Of course, once you click on the "Keep same password" link you will be brought to a page asking you to login to your mail server.
Once you so, though, the attackers will now have your login credentials and be able to access your email account.

As always, if you find a suspicious email related to your email accounts or login credentials, always contact your system administrator before clicking on any links in the emails you receive.

As part of our ongoing series to educate users about some of the more silly phishing scams out there, we bring a new one that states Excel is blocked unless you login and verify your details.

As people get more educated about phishing scams and how to spot them, we continue to see scammers create outlandish campaigns in order to bait people into entering their login credentials.
Such is the case with this new phishing email that states you wont be able to use you Excel due to a "system delay" unless you first login.

If a user enters their credentials, the information will be saved so that attackers can access and it used for BEC scams or take over other accounts the victim owns.
