Spam / phishing: "Your account is shutting down"
I'd like to advise users that there seems to be a phishing attempt going around related to Zoho e-mail accounts.
In the last couple of days, I have received two e-mails claiming that my Zoho mail account will be shut down if I don't click on a certain link.
Obviously this is fake.
- The writing style is not corporate.
- There's no explanation of why it's necessary. (For that matter -- think about it -- why wouldn't Zoho simply perform system upgrades and keep compatibility with existing accounts? This phish is simply insulting to intelligence.)
- The two e-mails have different dates. Why would my account be scheduled for termination both on May 22
*and
* May 24? lol
- The to: line includes other people's e-mails, visibly. Too risky for companies to do that.
ANYWAY if you see an e-mail like this, do ignore. Obviously fake.
