A new phishing attack uses several tactics to trick unsuspecting users into handing over their login credentials. The email claims you have unread emails due to your cloud storage being full. It then gives you options to resolve the issue. Clicking on either link sends you to a phony login page for your service provider. And any information on this page will be sent directly to the scammers.
What makes this scam so sneaky? First, the phony login page looks official and functions like a real login page. Only passwords that meet real requirements are accepted. If an acceptable password is entered, you are redirected to the actual website of the service provider you just provided credentials for. Second, the email is sent from a no-reply address using the domain "servicedesk.com." Most of us are used to seeing emails from support desks, which makes this sender feel legitimate. Third, the email itself bypasses security filters that you may have in place by using a combination of factors that makes your email security filters think the link is secure.
Stop, Look, and Think.
Don't be fooled.
