This Freshbooks blog post was from last week. Now it seems like impersonators have moved back to file sharing services such as Dropbox.
While any company can be impersonated, even yours truly, you must know how the company communicates with you.
In this instance, the actors say that you have a file that was sent by Dropbox, and they have images of the page that they share.
Know how services like dropbox communicates with you, and know how your other companies you communicate with communicate with you.
This article is titled Received a Dropbox link via email? Read this before you click.
Since I use Dropbox, I know how they communicate with me when I get a new folder request. Usually we share folders, not just files.
If a file was to be sent via dropbox, it comes from the domain, similar to what we’ve learned when it comes to Freshbooks in today’s podcast.
Remember to stay as safe as possible when it comes to how you send and receive things.
