Central Intelligence Agency – Case #75823469

Il lunedì mattina inizia con una simpatica mail di scamming firmata da una certa “Clelia Trice” della CIA – Central Intelligence Agency – che, in merito ad una presunta indagine su materiale pedopornografico con tanto di arresto previsto per l’8 aprile 2019 (!), molto gentilmente (“i know you are a wealthy person“) si offre di archiviare la mia posizione in cambio di un pagamento di 1000$ in BitCoin sul conto “speciale” 35X7J1NbYigV88QDqG75m112MESnVUFnoJ.

Ecco il testo completo della mail:

In allegato alla mail, tanto per cercare di darsi un contegno, c’è il logo della CIA.

Inutile sottolineare come sia solo un tentativo di frode, al quale non bisogna assolutamente dare seguito.
