Following on from another recent warning about frauds on social networks, as previousy reported by LSM, the latest alert concerns fake e-mail notifications.
"We urge our customers to take care – there is currently a new type of fraudulent email activity, when customers receive fraudulent messages asking them to make a payment to confirm the delivery of a shipment. Never open a link when receiving suspicious messages!" LP tweeted.
Aicinām mūsu klientus uzmanīties — šobrīd novērojama jauna veida krāpnieku aktivitāte e-pastu vidē, klientiem saņemot krāpnieciskas ziņas, kurās tiek aicināts veikt maksājumu, lai apstiprinātu sūtījuma piegādi. Saņemot aizdomīgas ziņas, nekad neveriet vaļā saiti! pic.twitter.com/fskMtdirJj

LP added that it was informing the national cybercrime agency of the attempts to scam customers.
"When you receive a suspicious message, do not open the link, be sure to check the sender’s e-mail address and under no circumstances give your personal information to fraudsters. Latvijas Pasts e-mail address and websites always end with pasts.lv — everything else can be considered fake notifications," LP said.
