Help with clicking a malicious link
« on: October 12, 2023, 02:39:02 AM »
I clicked a link in an email.  Neither avast of MSFT raised a flag but it was  a fake email.  I ran a check on zulu and got this.  Should I be worried?

https://zulu.zscaler.com/submission/4244a663-369f-479d-921a-cb6099dea12a

I also cleared all browser history and ran smart scan 2x.

No alerts.

It is hard to say what the URL is as there are two in the ZuluZscaler image.
Though I suspect that it is the one I have checked here:
 - https://www.virustotal.com/gui/url/3e5dee36ee1d89d0a5696502b079d8e2b6fc0a388240c33bc66a7d32957e3e69/detection
This indicates only one hit and that is suggesting spam. - Also check the Details section as that indicates a redirect 'Final URL' that could also be suspect. 

This one however indicts malicious redirect - https://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/yie9r8s-lmeewyjk4a-uc.a.run.app.
The redirects would appear to go to googleusercontent IP addresses.

I'm wondering if this redirection took place or not.

Nor do I what you mean by MSFT ?
