2. How to Identify Chunghwa Post Phishing Letters
1. The subject of the email is reasonable
According to the publicity on the official website of Chunghwa Post, Chunghwa Post will never notify the public by e-mail to handle related postal services or money storage business by online transfer.
2. Sender's email address
Organizations usually have their own domain email addresses, that is, the English between @ and .com. For example, Trend Micro's email addresses are almost always @trendmicro.com, which is a domain that outsiders absolutely cannot register. mail.
The most vulnerable place in phishing is support@gyanvitaranamlawcollege.com, which is obviously not related to the China Post domain ( post.gov.tw ) in the fraud case officially provided by Chunghwa Post.
3. Confirm the destination URL
In phishing emails, scammers often hide the phishing URL in a hyperlink, because the URL of the phishing site is usually clearly not the official domain. For example, the links in this China Post unpaid postal mail are taken to the fake CITIC website below. The URL looks like a series of Domains whose meaning is difficult to identify, not the commonly known www.ctbcbank.com
Although you can check whether the URL is suspicious after clicking on the link, some malicious links may lead you to download some bad programs, causing your computer to be attacked by information security.
The best way is to look at the domain before you click the link. One way is to move the mouse over the hyperlink to see the actual destination URL. If the URL still does not appear, then you can click on the URL. Right-click", select " Copy Destination URL " to other text editors, such as word, notepad, etc., and you can see the actual URL!
PS Obviously, the payment is to be paid to Chunghwa Post, but payment is not made through Chunghwa Post's own system, but to the China Trust page, which is also an unusual signal.
4. Words
In many phishing emails or one-page shopping sites, "simplified characters", "non-Taiwanese language", or official letters but the words are not formal enough, this is most likely because it is done by foreigners. The phishing emails are later translated into traditional Chinese through translation software, so there will be problems that look strange, such as this one, the following doubts appear
- Use "click" instead of "click"
- Click here to find your Shipping Tracking
- 'It's impossible to respond to them'
- Sometimes "you" is used in letters, sometimes "you"
If you receive a letter in English, you can also check the English spelling or capitalization for errors!
