The RISK

The biggest risk and the harmful part of the parking violation hack is they can obtain your personal information along with your credit card information. How would the parking violations bureau get a hold of your email address? Problem is, is they send out 1 million emails, the odds are 1 or 2 people will respond.

What some people don’t realize that even the last line, “if you wish to permanently delete your address is giving the hackers information. I valid email address. I did not click on it, but it may even ask you to register if you want to stop receiving those emails.

If you look at the “please submit here” the web address is “Wingedwolfcaravan”. Not sure that has anything to do with parking. Pay attention to the return address!

It’s important that people are aware of phishing schemes and hacks that want to obtain your personal information. If you are unsure, ask someone for help. Never click on unsolicited emails that request payment. Even if they look legitimate. Remember the hackers go out of their way to look legitimate. They are getting better and better at their craft.

If you suspect you have been hacked, please contact Tier3md for help.
