Another phishing action using the Poczta Polska brand

pp_1Poczta Polska warns against subsequent attempts to extort sensitive data or confidential information by fraudsters, calling for prudence and carefully checking the extensions of received e-mails and visited websites. Cybercriminals are again impersonating the company's brand, directing to its clients messages persuading to click on a suspicious link - similar to the real domain of Poczta Polska. The latest phishing action concerns the use of the address of the Poczta-po1ska.pl website, which differs from the true only one sign-i.e. the number 1 instead of the letter similar to it.

The risk of phisihing action is increasing. Cybercriminals are increasingly trying to extort sensitive data of Internet users to then use them for dishonest purposes. Phishing attacks reconcile not only in the good name and interests of well -known and respected companies, but also in private individuals, which often fall victim to fraud. One of the ways to appropriation of personal data of Internet users and their accounts is the use of manipulation technique, consisting in exerting a specific influence and behavior by sending emails, using very similar to the original and reserved domains of companies and institutions. The biggest threat in such situations is the transfer of phishing message by the internet user, access to an individual electronic banking account, login data and sensitive personal data.

The latest phishing action concerns the use of the eagle Poczta-po1ska.pl, in which the letter "L" has been replaced with the number "1", which can not be noticed in a hurry.
