Hi all,

 

We have noticed some phishing attempts that come in via mobile SMS, this is being done in the guise of a competition, where staff are asked to submit certain information back to a Cellular number Via SMS to stand in line to either collect or to win a prize.

I have sent out a communication to all the employees in my company about this trend, and you may want to do the same in your organization.

 

Regards
