Phishing Example 109: Updated Purchased labor report (et al)

Received September 2015

Multiple subject lines, all going to the same URL

Other subject lines:

  •  FY13 Rates
  • financial report
  • floor replacement

Email message goes to a fake google doc login page

Note out-of-date Google branding

Clicking on the link gives you the choice of logging in with MULTIPLE(!) email accounts?


Note also the website is hosted at an Iranian site (.ir ending) which appears to be hosted in France.

You have a pending incoming docs shared with you via Dropbox
Click to open: *SECURE MESSAGE
<hxxp://db.vXXXXs.com/R-viewdoc/Re-viewdoc/index.htm>*

I've shared a secured file document attached with Google Drop Box.
.

Notes:

  • The University does not use Dropbox for sharing.
  • The link does NOT go to dropbox.com
  • The link offers multiple non-umn logins
What? This said Dropbox, but shows Google.
That is NOT the UMN Google login.

Ends at some bogus (and out-of-date) document
