And fraudsters are trying again in the name of the popular shipping portal Amazon. Be careful with emails claiming to have your package tracked.
Fraudsters are currently again intensively sending fake emails in the name of Amazon. Apparently it was about tracking a package and planning delivery within 48 hours.
The email is written in poor German and claims there is a “With Monsieur Cuisine Connect” in the warehouse. To track and receive it, the recipient is supposed to use a “barcode”. The entire text is as follows:
Reference:
TRACK YOUR PACKAGE WITH AMAZON SHIPPING! | Schedule your package delivery within 48 hours.
Hello (user email address)
You have (1) a Cook with Monsieur Cuisine Connect located in the Amazon warehouse
Use your barcode to track and receive your package.
Your delivery will be canceled if you do not schedule delivery within 48 hours.
The product: Cook with Monsieur Cuisine Connect
Anyone who follows the integrated button will immediately receive a warning that it is a phishing trap - provided the recipient uses software protection. Without appropriate virus protection, the user is redirected to a website.
This is also a fake page in Amazon's corporate design. Anyone who clicks or taps on the continue button should then enter their login details. And this is where the phishing trap finally springs shut.
