Social Engineering
Threat actors are always thinking of new ways to target individuals and businesses, trying to acquire personal information, login credentials, getting the user to download malicious software or other sensitive information. One of the most common trends today is social engineering. Social engineering is pretending to be someone else to fool a person into revealing sensitive information, passwords, or other information that compromises a target system’s security. Do not become a victim of social engineering by unwittingly giving out information to an unknown person. A skilled social engineer will convince you that a). they are someone they are not and b). there is no harm in giving them the information they are requesting or entering information on malicious websites that appear to be genuine.
Always remember, that social engineering can happen through multiple sources such as email, text messages, and telephone calls. Take these steps to help ensure that you don’t become a victim: Authenticate, Authorize, Make A Phone Call Back, Don’t Be Pressured, Be Alert, Be Polite but Firm, and Report. With the rising amount of ransomware attacks and phishing messages, cyber security has never been more important than it is today.
Another rising trend alongside social engineering is more and more scams on the internet, to learn more read our blog post about common Facebook Marketplace scams.
Social Engineering Tactics
Phishing Indicators Example
Phishing emails are becoming more sophisticated and difficult to distinguish from legitimate emails. By impersonating a reputable company’s communications (with pretexting attacks), these emails tend to use clever and compelling language, such as an urgent need for you to update your information or communicate with you for your security. To spot a phishing email, look for a combination of red flags. In this example, notice:
1. Non-Wells Fargo email address: The email address of the sender does not include the wellsfargo.com domain name, instead using something like “comcast.net”: WellsOnlineBank2@comcast.net.
2. Urgent call to action: The email includes an urgent request in the subject line and message copy, such as “for your protection and for security reasons.” Phishing emails may also contain extra spacing or unusual punctuation in addition to other red flags.
3. Suspicious URL: The email contains a link to a non-Wells Fargo URL, which could be a fraudulent website. If you’re using a laptop or desktop computer, you can check a link’s URL by hovering over it with your cursor, and the URL will show in your browser window.
Smishing
How to recognize smishing.
Smishing attacks (SMS Phishing) use similar techniques as phishing emails: a sense of urgency to secure your account or verify your identity, using words like “locked,” “deactivated”, or“ for your protection” to describe your account status. These smishing attacks may prompt you to call a phone number, click on a link, or respond directly with personal or account information. To spot a smishing text, look for a combination of red flags. In this example, notice:
1.Suspicious sender: The text was sent by an unknown phone number, instead of one of Wells Fargo’s official short codes: 93557, 93733, 93729, or 54687.
2. Unusual text treatments: The text message contains a combination of unusual text treatments, including all caps, arrows, ID numbers, and an exclamation point.
3. Unprompted identity request: The request to verify the recipient’s identity was unprompted. Wells Fargo will request to verify your identity via access code only when prompted by an action that you have initiated, such as signing on to online banking or sending money.
