Thanks FedEx, This is Why we Keep Getting Phished
preview
From 2024, but funny to read…
What makes this situation so ridiculous is that while we’re all watching for scammers attempting to imitate legitimate organisations, FedEx is out there imitating scammers!
My most relevant experience: A colleague sent me a paypal link that allows me to accept money. Nowadays, I know that it was legit. But instead of paypal.com, it was something like py.pl?code=abcdef or p.pl?code=abcdef or whatever…
Thanks, Paypal!!. Clicking the shortened hyperlink did not save me any time, but it wasted multiple minutes for me to research whether the domain was a scam or not.
