Phishing Trip

OK, there are so many things wrong with this I just don’t know which one to address first!

The first tipoff should be the very name: NCUA. The National Credit Union Administration is NOT a credit union! It is a gov’t agency that oversees all credit unions! 1D10T5!

Second, lets review the bottom of the email…. hmmmm a disclaimer about "Spheris.com" and "HIPPA" warnings… Spheris is a medical documentation company. Credit unions do not need a HIPPA disclaimer (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act). They don’t deal with patient information!

The scammer hacked into a Spheris mail account to send the mail without realizing that Sheris attaches the HIPAA disclaimer on all outbound mail. 1D10T5!

Next, the moron is "sending" the mail from "fcu.com" which is also NOT a credit union! They provide information on credit unions!

The next clue that this is a scam is the body of the email; a blurry screenshot image that is so bad you can hardly read it, but if you squint really hard you will see mistakes in the text.

 I think any 3yo could do a better job!
