Attention! Hackers passing off as Česká pošta, demanding payment of “tax”

Share article:

Hackers are sending SMS as well as emails to their victims, passing off as Česká pošta.  In the emails they ask you to click on a fake link „cekposta.cz“ (the correct link is ceskaposta.cz), and after clicking on “Výplata” (“Payment”) they will redirect you to selection of payment gateways, where the hacker forces you to enter confidential banking information under the promise of payment of an amount of finance. This is a fraud and we do not recommend clicking on the above-mentioned links under any circumstances.

We recommend approaching these SMS or emails in the same way as any suspected phishing, i.e. we recommend not to open any unknown or suspect SMS or emails and especially their attachments, not to react and preferably to erase them immediately.
