Spammers have launched 'virtual' promotional ads to seduce users.
As expected, spammers have launched 'virtual' promotional ads on every consumer favorite. Most of these spams 'invite' users to buy products early in order to take advantage of 'falling from the sky'.
When clicking on the URL link, the user will be redirected to a fake product website such as sites selling fake watches, counterfeit pharmaceutical products or other products.
Symantec predicts that the number of spam related to Christmas will increase sharply in the next few weeks. Therefore, users should be alert when unwanted or unknown e-mails related to this occasion suddenly "knock on the door".
In order to prevent personal information from leaking, users should update the anti-spam signature signature database of security software on a regular basis. In addition, Symantec also recommends that Internet users should type the web address attached to the email directly into the browser, instead of clicking directly on the link.
