Online Threat Alerts (OTA) - Alerting you to scams and frauds.
Online users, if you have received emails like the one below, please delete them. Or, if you have received emails claiming your mailboxes are due for updates for security reasons and threaten to close the same mailboxes if you do not follow the instructions in the same emails, please delete them also. This is because the emails are fakes being sent by cybercriminals to trick their potential victims into visting phishing websites that steal email account credentials (usersnames, passwrods).
