Title: carmenergy.org caution!
Post by: sandhill on January 27, 2023, 03:32:26 PM

I had an email purportedly from Inland Revevue asking me to log in to receive a cost of living bonus.
The zone is carmenergy.org which must be a scam trying to access log in details.
Shouldn't some part of Avast have caught it?

Not really knowing what I am doing I entered the address in sandbox which gave me error 80004002 which seems to be a windows update error. Could carmenergy.org be trying to start a rogue windows update?
