Key Red Flags:

  1. The attachment is a .htm file

  2. Subject line has the company name as Westviewcoop Inc. which is basically just transcribed from our Web domain.

  3. The body of the message also has the company name as Westviewcoop

  4. Sense of urgency claiming it’s a past due invoice.

  5. Finally, in searching up the domain from the email address.  It appears to be some company out of Asia.

If you receive and email looking similar to the above example.  DO NOT open any attachments, DO NOT click any links.  Delete the email and Delete the email from your deleted items.
