Phish Bowl Alerts
Following in the pattern of fake Geek Squad, Norton and PayPal invoices, this example notifies the recipient of a purchase made for one "BINANCE COIN (BNC)" for almost $500, to be deducted from their bank account within 12 hours (the urgent threat). It helpfully provides a phone number to discuss the matter, during which the con artist will attempt to collect various personal and financial details from the victim.
