Too good to be true? It probably is, warn cybersecurity experts

Experts have warned that many users will end up receiving emails about ways in which they can invest in cryptocurrencies, and that they might be nothing more than an elaborate phishing campaign, as was the case most recently with DubaiCoin. — Reuters

If a get rich quick scheme somehow finds itself in your inbox, resist the urge to open that e-mail, delete it immediately, and block the sender, security experts said the GISEC 2021 exhibition.

Chances are that the email was the result of a cybercriminal hard at work trying to steal your personal data or money. If possible, take a screenshot or photo with your phone, and notify the company or authority that the hacker was trying to impersonate. Experts at the event warned that cybercriminals have become increasingly sophisticated in their approach, and that many attacks are disguised as information about the latest buzz and hot topics in the world or an easy way to make money.
