Fraudulent phishing campaign on Orange messaging.

For several days, Orange messaging has been the site of an intensive fraudulent phishing campaign.

Under the pretext of a debit balance on a Cofidis consumer loan, fraudsters go through a France-Créances recovery service.

The objective is to make you click on the link given in reference and which leads to an unsecured malicious site.

Here are two examples of formal notice letters that you are likely to receive on May 14 and 16, 2019. Of course it is specified that you cannot respond to them.

As you can see in these two examples:

  • Email addresses are random,
  • Pay order links are random and lead to unsecured domains ((hxxp://tc.fr/) or (hxxp://www.ulinks.fr/),
  • Personal identifiers and confidential codes vary from one mail to another,
  • The name of the sender of the email is random (DANIEL LAVAL, LOISEAU GUERIN).

THEPhishing, phishing or scamming is a technique used by fraudsters to obtain personal information with the aim of perpetrating identity theft. The technique consists of making the victim believe that they are speaking to a trusted third party – bank, administration, etc. — in order to extract personal information: password, credit card number, date of birth, etc. Indeed, most often, an exact copy of a website is made with the aim of making the victim believe that they are on the official website where they thought they were connecting. The victim will thus enter his personal codes which will be recovered by the person who created the fake site, he will thus have access to the victim's personal data, and for example in the context of a game, will be able to steal everything that the victim owns. on the game.
