IS&T SECURITY NOTIFICATION
What: *HIGH SECURITY ALERT: Active Known Phishing Campaign
When: Effective Wednesday, March 18, 2020 at 1:00 PM EDT
Impact: All Staff
Malicious cyber actors are known to take advantage of public concern of major events, including COVID-19, by conducting phishing attacks and disinformation campaigns. Phishing attacks often use prevalent channels (including emails, text, links on social media and bogus websites) to trick victims into action or revealing sensitive information. As a precaution, MFA implemented an email banner to help users identify emails that originate from an outside organization. We also encourage all staff to use MFA email addresses, Jabber or Tigertext only for work related communications. All staff members are advised to safeguard sensitive information by taking the following precautions:
ACTIVE KNOWN PHISHING CAMPAIGN:
A malicious website masquerading as a live map for Coronavirus COVID-19 Global Cases by Johns Hopkins University is circulating on the Internet to entice unwitting users to visit. Visiting the website infects the user with the AZORult trojan, an information stealing program which can exfiltrate a variety of sensitive data. *DO NOT VISIT the website “corona-virus-map[dot]com”.
What users should start doing now:
Questions/Concerns:
If you believe you are being phished, please report the incident to MFA Security to SecurityTeam@mfa.gwu.edu or contact the Security Hotline at 202-795-2793.
So, some bastard takes advantage on others' misery!
Human nature!?

Crazy world, indeed!
Getting worse!
Now someone over the TV interview suggested not only the delivered cardboard box but also the mails/letters would be better to be left alone for at least 24 hours following the delivery before you open them up, how about that?

This may be just a ruse or joke by a spammer.
Is the "MFA" Security (=possibly Mother Fuxxxxx Agency) a Phisher itself?
Anyway, even if your finger may itch, don't touch the links in the article with your mouse click.
Crazy world !!
