Caution! Fake email promises Medicare-Kit-fraudsters at work!

BIPA, Österreich - A fraudulent email is currently causing excitement among the users: Under the subject "Congratulations! You still call for your Medicare kit today" is claimed that the news comes from BIPA. According to a 5-minute report, an attentive reader became aware of this attempted fraud and warned others after receiving the dangerous email. This message is intended to provide recipients to reveal personal data by submitting a tempting offer of winning.

In the email, the combination package for travelers is advertised as a profit, and it is promised to receive a free Medicare kit. If you click on the link in the message, you could, however, fall into the trap of cyber criminals who want to tap personal information. The recipients are urgently asked to delete such emails immediately and not to enter personal data or to follow links. The stitch of the Blue Cross Blue Shield Medicare Kit emails, about which Ibisik reported, also shows similar signs: Here, fraudsters try to get on surveys for surveys to get sensitive information.

warning of further fraud attempts

As Ibisik's reporting illustrates, such phishing attacks are widespread. The e-mails give the impression that they come from legitimate companies and promise tempting offers to tempt the recipients for the disclosure of sensitive data. The fraudulent links often lead to fake surveys in which not only personal data are requested, but also could also wait hidden costs for users. Experts recommend that you are always skeptical about unexpected emails and to check the links precisely before clicking on it.

The signs of fraud are often slightly: spelling mistakes, generic salutation and urgent language can be indications that an email does not come from a familiar sender. In both cases, be it the fake bipa email or the Blue Cross Blue Shield fraud attempts to fraud, the recipients must be vigilant and should delete any message that seems suspicious. The warnings are clear: Protect your personal information by paying attention to the source and, if in doubt, ask directly to the company.
