A new phishing email—seemingly sent from your local government funding agency—offers phony relief grants to those in need. What makes this scam especially sneaky is that the bad guys use a Dropbox link to disguise their malicious attachment. Dropbox is a legitimate and commonly-used file sharing service. Therefore, the email security filters that your organization has in place may not consider the link as a red flag–increasing the chances of this email landing in your inbox.
The phishing email urges you to click a Dropbox link to download a file that supposedly contains information about your relief grant payment. The link even includes an expiration date for an added sense of urgency. If you click the link, then download and open the phony file, you’re taken to a look-a-like Microsoft 365 login page. If you enter any information on this page, it will be sent directly to the scammers.
