BEWARE – New Ransomware Email Scams!

A new campaign is using multiple methods to try and trick you into downloading ransomware onto your computer.

The first method uses a fake email that claims to be from eBay, with a common subject line ‘Your invoice for eBay purchases (098871971234567#)’. The ‘click’ link leads to a web page designed to download ransomware onto your computer. The invoice number changes for each email. The fake email looks extremely convincing and is almost identical to a genuine eBay email.
