Targeted Phishing attacks against GoDaddy Customers.
Targeted phishing
attacks grow and, are more and more sophisticated and tailored. This directs
us to warn, and remind webmasters that, they have to be
extra careful not to be fooled.
A lot of phishing attacks uses email registered at GoDaddy , their real name and GUI
to fool their owners.
Here is an example of phishing emails:
Dear Valued GoDaddy Customer RealName.
Your account contains more than 5271 directories and may pose a potential
performance risk to the server. Please reduce the number of directories for
your account to prevent possible account deactivation.
In order to prevent your account from being locked out we recommend that
you create special directory.
Or use the link below:
https://mya.godaddy.com/tmp.aspx?doit=6123455
However, when clicked (or moused over), the link actually redirects to a
secondary phishing page located at httx://texlavka.ru/includes/data/ourrueatqz.htm
asking for your GoDaddy user and password:
As a GoDaddy customer, always use www.godaddy.com
to login and do not follow email links.
