I, Sheik, have the following thoughts/comments on this suspected fraudulent email message from “Janine Edwards”:
This one is significant as it evaded my spam filters and is the first time that I have seen one emanating from/using an Iranian domain that appears to have been hacked – all the miscreants files are in THIS FOLDER – hayanchemie.com/rhem/. Be very careful as it asks for username and password if you click through on the attached confirmation..htm file.
