Phishing scam combines FedEx and Google Drive
If you were the unlucky once to have received an email from UPS, FedEx, etc explaining your parcel arrived or having problems delivering your parcel, you could have been part of this Scam. Over 20 Companies have been hit with malware scam. Clicking on the link provided to ensure your parcel gets delivered will result in malware to be installed. The link appears to lead to a Google Drive account and even includes HTTPS and the word secure. Once the URL is clicked a malicious file labeled Lebalcopy.exe is downloaded. Uninformed customer/ users will click the link and end up with a infected machine. Administrators should enforce blocking of .exe filed through their spam protection as well as prevent download of .exe filed through their firewall. Information provided by scmagazine
