New kind of spam

[Dorothy Firsching]

I just noticed that, caught in my spam filter, are spam emails looking like Joomla Update emails with the site names slightly misspelled.  E.g., "Solutionss" instead of "Solutions".

With the warning in my filter that the actual name is different...

I'm lucky that I tend to notice typos, and don't do Joomla updates by clicking on reminder emails anyway.
Not to mention that mine are already updated.

Have you seen these?  Watch out.

No, I have never seen one of these. However, thanks for the heads-up. I will keep an eye out.

Haven’t seen these either. I filter these to go to a specific folder and I took a quick peek and couldn’t find anything nefarious. Time will probably tell.
