Online criminals clone UK universitys website to phish for cash

Criminals have cloned a UK universitys website in an attempt to phish for unsuspecting students cash and personal information. Newcastle University confirmed on Twitter its knowledge of a rogue website fraudulently abusing its brand. It’s unclear whether anyone fell for the fake website and handed over their personal data to scammers. RSA’s Azeem Aleem feels it’s more than likely that someone did. It highlights the very real danger of modern spoofing attacks, says Aleem.”]
