Protect yourself, and others, from phishing scams

Phishing is a form of computer crime which uses spoof email links to illegally obtain personal data from unsuspecting parties.

Phishing scammers speculatively send out fraudulent emails which attempt to trick recipients into revealing sensitive information, like their passwords and credit card details.

These emails masquerade as being from a legitimate company or organisation – and can look convincing, however, they’re fake. Scammers send them to millions of random email addresses, hoping some of the recipients will be customers of the company the message claims to be from.

Avoiding phishing

The key thing to remember is that no credible company or organisation will ever ask for your confidential details via email.

If you ever receive an email asking you for such information, allegedly sent by webfusion, please forward the full email on to abuse@webfusion.com immediately and we’ll investigate at once.

webfusion will never ask you to verify your username, password or payment details through email.

Our emails do sometimes contain secure links to your webfusion control panel. However, if you’d rather not click on any email link, you can always log into your control panel directly and manage your account from there.

Once again, if you ever receive a phishing email claiming to be from webfusion please forward it to abuse@webfusion.com immediately, then delete the email from your inbox.
