  1. In this #scam, the #smishing message informs you that you are owed a reimbursement or refund on overpaid state taxes. The #LoggerEIO group seems to have latched on to the idea of using individual states as the lure, rather than the federal #IRS, which is an interesting choice.

    In the pages I looked at, the following states were represented with custom #phishing pages that use the same stylesheet, color scheme, and logos of the state tax agency they're impersonating.

    Targeted states include Alabama, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Texas, Tennessee, Washington, and Wisconsin.

  6. Achtung Abzocke per SMS (#Smishing)

    Gerade kam 'ne SMS, angeblich von DHL, ein Paket sei aufgrund Zollgebühren im Transit angehalten worden.
    Klicke nie auf Links, ohne sie vorher genau anzusehen und diese URL ist auffällig (dhlpaket-zolle . com). Ein Paket erwarte ich auch nicht.

    Es geht wieder eine Betrugsmasche rum. Klickt man auf solche Links fängt man sich schnell schädliche Apps, Massen-SMS oder auch Abofallen ein.

  8. ⚠️ #BOLO for a new #Smishing campaign ⚠️

    This one leverages #AWS for bulk smishing attacks. The scam often takes the guise of a message from the US Postal Service (#USPS) regarding a missed package delivery. It's a malicious #python script known as #SNSSender
