The Cyber
criminals have now targeted a travel firm Booking.com in an offer to plunder
hundreds and thousands of pounds from clients.
The clients
were sent WhatsApp and text messages asserting a security break that implied
that they needed to change their password.
Be that as
it may, the link gave the attackers access to the bookings and they at that
point, sent follow-up messages requesting full installment for holidays ahead
of time with false bank details provided.
David
Watts, the Marketing manager of Newcastle, got a WhatsApp message but realized
it as a trick. He stated: "It looked exceptionally reasonable and I can
now believe how people fell for it."
These
seemed bona fide as they incorporated personal information of individuals including their names, addresses, telephone
numbers, dates and booking prices as well as reference numbers.
