CNelson Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Seems the SFA's security is as good as our campaign hopes. Anyone else received an email this morning about an invoice? Attachment is a virus file from what I can see so don't open if so.  ' Dear Customer, Please find attached invoice INV-01951 (Amended) for 170.00 GBP. This invoice was sent too early in error. The payment date should be 7th December 2016. Kindly accept our apologies for the oversight and for any inconvenience caused. The amount outstanding of 170.00 GBP is due on 07 Dec 2016.

OLAS Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 DO NOT OPEN THE LINK WITHIN THE LATEST SFA EMAIL I just received the email below;  it's a scam.  You don't owe money.  It downloads a zip file which contains an obfuscated javascript file that'll likely infect your computer, encrypt your files or worse. Best thing to do is just delete it and forget about it.  Be weary though.  I would presume if other SSC members get it, then their system has been hacked and our details are probably in the hands of criminals.   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUFF 1875 Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 I received 2 emails and deleted immediately. Should be obvious as no-one is going to be owing £170 to the SSC anyway!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BremnerLorimerGray Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 That's 3 in quick succession, 2 from the Scotland Supporters Club & 1 from the Scotland National Team .  Email is a standard spam email.

rolaaand Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Aye. Three emails buzzed me five minutes ago. Same amount £170. Hopefully nobody falls foul of that. They shouldn't though,it is a fairly poor phishing attempt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNelson Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Be interesting to see if the SFA will be reimburse anyone who actually follows the link and ends up out of pocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilser Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Anyone get one of these? It went to the email address I use for SSC emails rather than my usual one so it looks as if the SSC database has been hacked (I've not bought anything from the SSC for a good while). There was a dodgy looking hyperlink which I didn't click. Dear Customer,Please find attached invoice INV-01951 (Amended) for 170.00 GBP. This invoice was sent too early in error.

Craig_Mc Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 I just got an email saying it was from SSC. An invoice to pay? With the link being a ZIP file (usually the beginning of a virus being unleashed). Anybody else had this?? Looks very legit, odd telephone number.

OLAS Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Only 2 from 54 antivirus programs detected this is a dodgy file and all the AV signatures are the very latest.  The SFA will have some explaining to do if anyone gets infected with this.  The "HEUR_JSRANSOM.O2" tells me it's ransomware which encrypts all your files and asks for BitCoins for the unlock key.  You could be £000s out of pocket if infected.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
