419 Scam of the Day [Email Scams, Phishing, etc.]

Wow. Just received a very sophisticated scam attempt:

Got a message from a verified WhatApp business account purporting to be from the hotel I booked for my holiday. They asked me to confirm details by clicking on the link to confirm the booking.

They have my name, phone number, booking details etc. obviously the hotel system has been hacked. The only giveaway was that they used a phone number for portugal and a suspicous URL for the link.

like this one? xD More common than you might think. I’ve received similar messages for most of my bookings outside Europe

Yes almost the exact same template!
