Email Phishing Scam

Here’s a new scam you should be aware of.

Not your typical phishing scam, this email will actually install a trojan. The email looks convincing. Don’t believe it.

It will ask you to install a certificate. Don’t.

Unless you’re a super techy geek, you won’t have any need for a certificate for your email, and most of the people you correspond with via email have no use for it either. If they do use it, they’ll let you know.
