IC3 Warns of Extortion Email Schemes

The Internet Crime Complaint Center has issued an alert on extortion schemes that relate to recent high-profile data thefts. Fraudsters often use the news release of high-profile data breaches to scare victims into clicking on a link or paying a ransom.

Users and administrators are encouraged to review the IC3 Alert for details and refer to US-CERT TipST04-014 for information on social engineering and phishing attacks.
