BEWARE of "NEW PROJECT" emails with a DropBox link!


I had an email from a guy I know who is into projects and followed the link and stupidly logged in with my email address and password disbelief

The email said:

I sent you a message using Dropbox , kindly click here to view it

 Regards"

 

I have removed the link.

Fortunately the password I used on DropBox isn't the same as I use on my email proper so I hope I escaped.

Can't believe I fell for it but others be warned. Someone not far away had their email address book stolen and people in it are now being spammed cry

PS Apparently not a new scam - see http://www.mailguard.com.au/blog/beware-another-fake-dropbox-phishing-scam
