RAC Bulletin 2009-036E: RAC target of phishing attempt
Several messages have been received from users of the @rac.ca e-mail
alias system who have received e-mails purporting to be
from RAC claiming that maintenance was to be performed on the
e-mail system and that certain information was requested to be
sent to the sender of the message.
Please note that this message was not originated by anyone at
RAC. We would not ask for such information as usernames and
passwords in an e-mail. It can safely be ignored. E-mails
relating to the @rac.ca e-mail alias system would come from
alias-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx or vptas@xxxxxx or other
identifiable RAC e-mail address.
Thanks to Earle Smith, VE6NM, who sent me the message
with complete headers which made it possible to report this
activity to the provider from which the messages originated
as well as the provider of the e-mail address to which
replies were to de sent.
