When you get secured e-mails from your local bank about a serious announcement such as the one below, it ought to grab your attention.
Email continues to be a favorite target for cyber criminals to compromise sensitive information of businesses and individuals. In fact, emails have recently been sent purporting to be from such large organizations as the IRS and NACHA, the national electronic payments association, encouraging users to click on web links and download malicious software. These emails are fraudulent. Should you receive an email like this from the IRS, NACHA, or any unknown source, we encourage you to delete it immediately (don’t open, click links, or accept downloads).
For military families, it is an uncomfortable feeling to deal with this issue.
It is important to beaware of this activity, report any suspicious items to your bank or other, and do NOT respond to these e-mails. Delete them. Do not open them. Do not click links. Do not accept unknown downloads. Most important, do not give out any personal information.
It is being vigilent with these criminals that will curtail their success rate and cause them to see other means, preferably the legal way.
