Hi Anna,

 

I'd be happy with this but have no idea about WhatsApp so someone else would 
need to organise it.

Hi I am forwarding the content of a message from a security service I subscribe 
to.

The link in the text is to their site where the full text is located.

 

This morning we are publishing an important advisory about an unusually 
effective Gmail phishing attack 
<https://www.wordfence.com/blog/2017/01/gmail-phishing-data-uri/?utm_source=list&utm_campaign=011217&utm_medium=email>
  that is being used to steal login credentials. 

 

This attack is fooling even experienced technical users and appears to be 
having a wide impact. In light of this, we made the decision to send out this 
bulletin, even though it is outside our usual Word Press security focus. 

 

In this morning's post we include a detailed description of how the attack 
works, what to do about it, why it is so effective and why Google has said they 
won't protect against this attack. 

 

You can find the full story on our blog... 
<https://www.wordfence.com/blog/2017/01/gmail-phishing-data-uri/?utm_source=list&utm_campaign=011217&utm_medium=email>
 

 

We also recently updated our Learning Center article on how to choose a 
WordPress hosting service, for the security minded. So you may want to give 
that a read
