As the year comes to a close, we are seeing a significant uptick in rogue emails that appear to be coming from vendors and clients requesting payment, or a click to update terms etc. If you look closely though, the addresses and websites really don't match the real thing.
We suspect you will also begin to see emails that appear to be related to the new tax legislation along with a myriad of other topics that may appear legitimate.
Please be extra careful with your email right now as you work to wrap up the year, spend time with friends and family and open a new year. This is a hectic time and there are bad people that prey upon our holiday spirit and some of the confusion that accompanies this time of year.
As always, feel free to forward any suspect emails to us. We will be happy to look them over and advise.
