Phishing Campaign Baits Hook With Malicious Amazon PDFs www.darkreading.com/cyberatta…

Researchers are highlighting the rise of a new phishing tactic: a campaign that uses PDF documents to trick victims by announcing expired Amazon Prime memberships.

Users are targeted by email and, after clicking on the PDFs, are taken to pages that impersonate Amazon, where they are urged to input their personal details and credit card information.

The researchers at Palo Alto Networks Unit42 who discovered the campaign have collected 31 PDF files with links to these phishing sites, none of which had been submitted to VirusTotal.
