New email scam April 2023

Hi,

This morning I received an email titled Promotional video proposal from hello@adobepromo.com -- the URL adobepromo.com is insecure and shows a bunch of animated dots and boxes. 

Since the email content is sent as an image, here is a screenshot of the text of the email: 

 

Do NOT click n the link in the body of the text!!! (I didn't) 

Adobe needs to get this shut down.

Any insights into this will be very appreciated.

 

Thanks!

If it means anything, that website is Russian and looks like it was generated in 30 seconds with AI.  The email is a little better than most though. It has no major grammar or spelling errors.  No doubt  generated by ChatGPT to make it seem ligit.

Thanks @Nancy OShea . I've sent the email's RAW source to the Adobe Phishing Team.

Imagine the thousands of these that were sent out. -- perhaps targeting people with YouTube channels such as me.  I'm sure some have fallen for it. The hidden actual sender email is from yandex.ru 

It's just going to get worse.
