Antispam Labs intercepted a fraudulent United States Postal Service phishing email that seeks to steal targets’ personal and financial information. The scam email claims that a “package delivery is on hold” and recipients have only three business days to confirm payment or risk losing the package. This scam campaign was active for just one hour, hitting inboxes in the US, UK and Ireland. Most of the fraudulent emails were sent from IP addresses in the UK and Germany. Even though this campaign was short-lived, our researchers expect similar phishing campaigns to pop up in inboxes across the globe.”]
