Western Union

I was too slow for this one. It was a Western Union email explaining that "my account" had been limited. I find this funny to receive this after I sent some money out through Western Union.
Anyway... they asked for all my log in details and blah blah. Same old same old. You know how emails usually have the sender's name and then the email? Well, these scams usually use the real companies name as the main contact, which is usually what brings in the people. So rather "Mrs. Smith "... you will see "credit@westernunion.com " But sometimes even this email can be masked. Either way, this is a crappy set up. The whole email is an image. Once you get it loaded, the whole body is clickable.
After proceeding to click, I was brought to a crappy page. It looked legit, but it was definitely not. The URL was total gobbledygook. None of the buttons on the top were clickable, and the buttons below the user and password area, the buttons work. Basically, this person used the simplest of HTML or something. But yeah... I entered a bunch of random letters and it accepted them... so yeah...
Like I said, I was little late to get to the next step in regards to the account. Was removed pretty quickly, which is very good.
If its in spam, its probably there for a reason. Don't bother with it unless you are expecting something. And if you do have an account with the company the email lists, just open a new window in your browser and go to the company site and check for yourself.

Happy new year and safe net browsing!
