Security researchers at KnowBe4 have identified a new phishing scam that involves phishers luring Internet users to download malicious documents attached to fake emails that appear to have been sent by a hospital. The fake emails sent by the phishers informed recipients that they recently came into contact with an acquaintance who had COVID-19, thereby creating a sense of anxiety among those who received such emails. Recipients were asked to download an Excel document attached to the emails and proceed to the nearest emergency clinic for testing.
