最近这几个月fraudulent email越来越多,前几天发现某某某也上当了,所以在这里稍微说一下。
以目前比较流行的fake chase email为例。有些无良之徒,做一个网站,看上去和chase的网站一模一样。然后通过大量的spam email来骗人点击email里的链接。当被骗者点了之后,如果不谨慎的话,就以为自己到了chase的网站,就会根据要求来输入自己的个人信息。就这样,一些很重要的个人信息就泄漏了。后果很难估计。
如何防止受骗呢?
最简单的作法:永远不点击任何email(尤其是commercial email)里提供的链接,除非你100%的知道来源。
再来看看这些骗局具体是怎么设置的。
首先,是建设这么个网站,咋看上去和chase的网站一模一样。其实,仔细看url,有如下几种情况
- 非常类似chase的域名,比如chase-sc.com
- 只不过是个ip, 比如http://66.80.8.4/account/
- 我以前见过的一种,以http://www.chase.com起头,中间有非常长的空格,然后再是某些字符串。那串长长的空格起到的效果是,你在浏览器的地址栏里根本看不到最后的那串字符,所以你以为你确实访问的是http://www.chase.com, 实际上你访问的是http://www.chase.com[空格串][字符串]
这种spam通常会用一个引起你紧张的标题,比如
- Update and confirm your ChaseBankOnline account
- Official notification from Chase.com | Renew your Account!
- Chase Alert ( MSG ID: 653788 ) ( Final Warning ),等等
如果你实在放心不下,也千万不要去点击里面的链接,你可以给chase打电话。chase的客服会告诉你,他们从来不发这种email。
这种spam的信件接收者一般是“undisclosed-recipients”,或者一大堆一看就是随机产生的邮件名。
邮件的内容,一般是html的,无非就是骗人去点那些链接,然后骗取个人信息。
好的email防spam系统,通常能够很容易得将这类email识别出来。比如我们系的服务器收到这类邮件,马上会打上spam标记。还是以假chase邮件为例子,来看防spam软件是怎么打分的,你就可以看到这种email有多少毛病了:
Content analysis details: (20.8 points, 5.0 required) pts rule name description —- ———————- ————————————————– 0.4 X_PRIORITY_HIGH Sent with ‘X-Priority’ set to high 0.8 UNDISC_RECIPS Valid-looking To “undisclosed-recipients” 0.1 FORGED_RCVD_HELO Received: contains a forged HELO 1.2 HTML_IMAGE_ONLY_20 BODY: HTML: images with 1600-2000 bytes of words 0.5 HTML_40_50 BODY: Message is 40% to 50% HTML 0.0 HTML_MESSAGE BODY: HTML included in message 0.0 BAYES_50 BODY: Bayesian spam probability is 40 to 60% [score: 0.5009] 0.0 MIME_HTML_ONLY BODY: Message only has text/html MIME parts 2.8 URIBL_PH_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the PH SURBL blocklist [URIs: chase-sc.com] 3.0 URIBL_OB_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the OB SURBL blocklist [URIs: chase-sc.com] 2.7 FORGED_OUTLOOK_HTML Outlook can’t send HTML message only 1.1 HTML_MIME_NO_HTML_TAG HTML-only message, but there is no HTML tag 2.5 FORGED_OUTLOOK_TAGS Outlook can’t send HTML in this format 0.9 HTML_SHORT_LINK_IMG_3 HTML is very short with a linked image 4.1 FORGED_MUA_OUTLOOK Forged mail pretending to be from MS Outlook 0.7 AWL AWL: From: address is in the auto white-list
假如,你不幸已经通过这种email点击了链接,并泄露了你的个人信息,那么你必须马上take action!
仔细阅读transunion网站上为Fraud Victim提供的Taking Action信息,它会指导你该怎么做。Good Luck!
废话了这么多,总结一下,还是开头那句话:别乱点!
