Email Fraud Protection (Phising Protection)
With mxSENTRY and our layered anti-spam techniques, you can
protect yourself from the risks of phishing. Phishing uses
deceiving email to defraud victims. It is becoming
increasingly common – and increasingly dangerous. Fraud
protection is included as feature in mxSENTRY.
Phishing attacks use spam to distribute large volumes of
fraudulent, yet official looking emails designed to deceive
you into disclosing your credit card numbers, bank account
information, passwords and other sensitive information. By
disguising the messages to appear from well-known banks,
online retailers, not for profit organizations, and credit
card companies, phishers have been able to convince up to
five percent of email users to reveal sensitive personal
information over the internet.
A common phishing technique involves creating the impression
that there is an immediate need for personal information,
which lures people to quickly click on a link to a fake
website. Phishers have masqueraded as companies like eBay,
Citibank, AOL, Paypal, Fleetbank, Earthlink, Visa, Barclays,
Yahoo and Amazon to defraud victims.
To protect yourself you need to be careful about responding
to requests for information and you need Email Defense.
Using the same methods to detect spam, phishing emails can
be identified and filtered out of inbound emails to stop you
from receiving them. Our anti-spam rules, automatically
protect you from anti-fraud and phishing scams before they
can enter your inbox.
Protect your inbox and your identity.
