Earlier, Lastpass, the one password you’ll ever need, posted a blog post talking about how people are going around as them asking for master passwords. In a blog post PHISHING ALERT | FRAUDULENT EMAILS REQUESTING MASTER PASSWORD UPDATE lastpass gives some examples on what has gone on that they’ve seen. I’ve been trying to think on how to write this, but I’m not coming up completely blank. The problem is that people are using their name to get information so they can take control of your account. This is one service that even the free users get two-factor options, although there are primium options that they offer as part of the monthly subscription.
This is only one kind of phishing attack, there are many more kinds and samples. Stay safe.
