An email from Fishing without spelling mistakes

And yes the pirates are not like me, they also take French lessons :93:

Internet users today more easily sniff out the traps set on the web, which forces scammers to refine their persuasion techniques. :accord:

This is the case with this new SFR phishing, apparently done the old way, but which contains many misleading details. For example, there's not a single spelling mistake!
Image unavailable (removed by its host) Before, it was easier to recognize an official phishing email (CAF, EDF, Free, Caisse d'Epargne, etc.) because they were full of spelling mistakes, it was easy to unmask the trap and move on from the so-called urgency to update your account information or proceed with payment of an unpaid invoice.

But since these phishing attempts have existed, internet users are becoming less and less credulous. Cyber-scammers must therefore increasingly play with finesse to trap the wary internet user.

This is the case with this SFR phishing, which particularly cares about the details:

- No spelling mistakes
- A credible sender email address: "[email protected]"
- A link with a plausible URL, at least at the beginning: "https://espace-neufbox.com/cgi-bin/Sfr.fr/connexion/loginAction.action.php?…"

By clicking on it, everyone knows what happens, entering login/password, payment with CB, etc.....
