Sophisticated phishing campaign targeting top brass
A new phishing campaign to steal login credentials from businesses is specifically targeting senior executives.
A fake email claiming to be from a company CEO discusses the rescheduling of a board meeting, but the email’s link leads users to a page resembling a Doodle poll which can steal Office 365 credentials. Researchers at GreatHorn first discovered the campaign.
According to findings, the campaign is hitting organisations of different sizes and industries with the email’s content always remaining the same. If successful, the attackers could have the opportunity to steal important credentials which could create an entry point for further attacks.
