Eine Mail mit dem Betreff "für Sie" hat den Absender "Microsoft" (news@micro.eu) - das überrrascht, denn ich bin gar keine Kunde von Microsoft, ich verwende Linux. Na gut, die Mail ist natürlich Spam. Die von Microsoft verwendeten EMail-Adressen sehe ja auch so aus: ***@microsoft.com.

Im Anhang der Mail befindet sich eine PDF-Datei, die das enthält, was oft in Mails der Nigeria-Connection steht: eine Art simples Formular, in das man Name, Adresse etc schreiben soll. Lustigerweise werden dort als Preise Laptops mit Windows 8 versprochen - dabei gibt es doch schon seit einem Jahr Windows 10....

Es gab auch mal gefakte Anrufe von Microsoft. Hier ist so eine Geschichte (und bei der ist mal der Faker der Dumme): http://www.daujones.com/detail.php?usrid=12681

Gestern erhielt ich gleich zwei Mails von "Microsoft® Corporation" (daikanyama@attachment.co.jp), mit identischem Inhalt aber verschiedenem Betreff: einmal "Kindly go through the attachedment letter from microsoft", dann "Business deal"

Ja, alles in Blau außer der EMail-Adresse. Im Anhang befanden sich vier Dateien: eine docx, eine pdf und zwei bmp Dateien - ich habe sie nicht untersucht, kann also nicht sagen, was sie enthalten.

Jetzt kam "CONGRATULATIONS!!!YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS HAS WON £950,000.00 GBP", Absender angeblich "Andrew Greene" (info@sseweb.ae)

Microsoft values your right to privacy! Your information is 100% secured and will be used exclusively for the purpose of this award only.

Microsoft Award Team has discovered a huge number of double claims due to winners informing close friends relatives and third parties about their winning and also sharing their pin numbers. As a result of this, these friends try to claim the lottery on behalf of the real winners. Microsoft Corporation Lottery Board has reached a decision from its headquarters that any attempt on double claiming of lottery winnings discovered by the Lottery Board will result to the cancellation of that particular winning, leading to loss for both the double claimer and the real winner, as it is taken that the real winner was the informer to the double claimer about the lottery. So you are strongly advised to keep your winnings strictly confidential until you claim your prize.

Congratulations from the Staffs & Members of the Microsoft interactive Lotteries Board Commission.


Yours faithfully,

Nicola Hodson (nee McKeown)'s

Letzteres war bei mir jetzt auch im Spam-Ordner!

Eine Mail mit dem Betreff "Email Update" tauchte heute in meinem Posteingang auf. Der Absender nennt sich "Microsoft Outlook Web App" und hat die Adresse no-reply-googleaccountupdate@emailmessagingservices.com.pl - das sieht aber gar nicht nach Microsoft aus :D
