Author Topic: Watch out for Phishing Emails claiming to be from Cruzio  (Read 3702 times)
« on: July 15, 2008, 10:19:10 am »

Cruzio has recently seen a few instances of Phishing attacks on Cruzio customers. "Phishing" is a scam tactic to obtain your personal information, more info at Wikipedia here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phishing or in our Security Tips Section: http://www.cruzio.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=38&/topic,171.msg511.html#phishing

If you receive an email purporting to be from Cruzio that asks for your password, credit card info, or ANY other personal information DO NOT respond to it. Cruzio does NOT ask for this type of information via email.

If you're at all unsure about any email communications you receive Call Cruzio to confirm its legitimacy at 459-6301.

An example of a Phishing email follows, remember this is NOT a legitimate email from Cruzio.

Dear Cruzio Member,

Your e-mail account was used to send a huge amount of unsolicited spam messages during the recent week. If you could please take 5-10 minutes out of your online experience and confirm the attached document so you will not run into any future problems with the online service.

If you choose to ignore our request, you leave us no choice but to cancel your membership.

Virtually yours,
The Cruzio Support Team
