We are currently warning about a fake email from Telekom!

In this, fraudsters pose as “Telekom Deutschland GmbH” and try to intimidate consumers by writing that the APRIL bill has not yet been paid (in essence) and that they should now look at the bill for April. This is the following email:

This supposed invoice is a phishing scam. Fraudsters are posing as Deutsche Telekom. The aim of this email is, of course, for the recipients to follow the built-in link and be directed to a fake website. In this case, our antivirus software directly prevented the website from being created. The notice that it is a phishing web address pops up straight away!

Without appropriate software protection, you can reach a website that is modeled on a Deutsche Telekom login. Here the visitor is asked to enter a username and password.

We warn against providing truthful information on this fake website!

What do I do if I am a victim of a phishing attack?

If, despite all caution, fall victim to a phishing attack, it is first important to remain calm. Bank accounts and cards should be blocked if you have entered their details on a fake site.

Your credit institution can also support you if you have fallen victim to a phishing attack and help you take the necessary steps. If you have entered account details, you must change the passwords without delay. An antivirus program that scans the computer after such an attack is also essential to prevent further damage.

 

If viruses or malware are found, change your passwords again to secure your accounts. If money or accounts have already been stolen, it helps to file a report and take action against the fraudsters with the help of a specialized lawyer.
