Threatening emails in the name of Fedpol
In an e-mail using the logos of police.ch and Cybercrimepolice.ch, fraudsters are currently trying to intimidate victims with spam messages in French. On the Cybercrimepolice.ch website, the Zurich cantonal police usually warn against fraud attempts. Now the website itself has become a victim of scammers.
In an e-mail with an attached PDF in French and using the logos of Police.ch as well as Cybercrimepolice.ch, fraudsters are currently claiming to be guilty of distributing pedophile content on the Internet, as Cybercrimepolice.ch writes. The website usually warns of fraud attempts on behalf of the Zurich Cantonal Police itself.
The scammers write that you have committed a crime and should report to the e-mail address provided. If this is not done within 48 hours, a penalty order will be issued, the spam mail continues.
The Cantonal Police advises to ignore the email, mark it as spam and delete it, and in no case to reply to this mail.
