Original Phishing Message

Tips for Detection

  • Technology Services adds a banner at the top of email messages that match patterns of previous phishing attacks. If you see this banner, please use extra caution.
  • Receiving a 30% commission to transfer $45.5 million completely out of the blue is certainly too good to be true!
  • The statement that “this funds transaction is 100% genuine,Real, legal and free risk” should be very suspicious.
  • The reply-to address is princeokon[@]citromail[.]hu which does not match the sending email address of test[@]jzbgno[.]hospedagemweb[.]net.
