Phishing is an attempt to extract confidential information by deception through electronic media. It is typically done through email to publicised addresses where a relationship is highly likely or implicit. For example, you might get an email that looks like it’s from a manager or accounts department asking you to engage in conversation or supply information that could be used in order to commit fraud.
Often these messages have a "From:" address or display name set to a legitimate email address or known person that is familiar to you; however, if you look at the header of the message you will see that the "Reply-To:" address is different. The fraudster will have access to this destination email account and may try to engage in further communication.
These messages may contain actions such as requesting confirmation of outstanding payments and changes to bank account details or payments. Ultimately this deception is aimed at obtaining enough information or deceiving you into making changes to allow a criminal to make a fraudulent financial gain.
If you get this type of message, do not provide the information requested or reply to the message without confirming that the email is legitimate.
Please could you forward the message as an attachment to: phishing.reports@picotech.com where we will examine the message and reply to confirm the legitimacy of the message. We will use any fraudulent messages (excluding your email address) to update this attempts and examples page.
If you have responded to any messages that you believe may have been illegitimate, stop any communication immediately with the third party and block or mark the sender's address as spam.
