E-Mail Hoax - Fraudulent UPS E-Mails Try to Deliver Malware
Fraudulent e-mails that claim to be from United Parcel Service (UPS) are now sweeping through inboxes so keep your eyes open for them. These e-mails usually contain a phony tracking number in the subject heading, and lead you to believe that a UPS shipment could not be delivered. You're then instructed to open up the attachment to correct the delivery address, print out a waybill or invoice, and pick up the package from a UPS office.
The attachment features an icon that makes it appear to be a Microsoft Word document, but if PC users click on it, it actually downloads Malware short for malicious software. (This does not affect Mac users.) Malware may disable your firewall, look for and steal credit card and bank account details, or make screen snapshots to allow hackers continued access to your computer.
You can read the official UPS statement about this scam and find out how to check the authenticity of notification messages by visiting: http://www.ups.com/content/us/en/about/news/service_updates/virus_us.html
If you receive a suspicious e-mail like this, delete it and do not open the attachment. This attack underlines the importance of thinking twice before you open an attached file, even if it appears to come from a reputable organization. It may be worth the few extra minutes to check out how genuine an attachment is by contacting the sender by phone or e-mail. If you use e-mail, key in the address yourself rather than using the "Reply'" button. This also serves as a reminder to always keep your Internet security program updated, which offers protection through virus definition updates. |
