PLEASE BE AWARE: Phishing Emails Sent from County Recorder's Email Address
Please be aware that phishing emails originating from the County Recorder's email address,
Do not click on any links or open any attachments within the email. If the link is clicked, close it immediately and do not enter any information into the website that it opens.
How to identify the spoofed emails:
- Subject line of email referenced "approved payment advice" with a number attached
- Email body contained a greeting and vague text, similar to the below, with a link to what appeared to be a PDF:
Good afternoon,
FYI,
See attached the PDF below,
[phishing link here]
- The link does not lead to a PDF. It may lead to what looks like a login page for another website, or otherwise request credentials or information be entered.
Again, do not click on the link in the email, and if it is, do not enter any information into the website that opens. It is not a legitimate website, no matter how it may appear.
