Some phishing emails are bad, some are really bad, and then some are like watching a train wreck in slow motion level of bad. Guess which group today’s email belongs to?

[Phishing email claiming to be from CVS and yet the Subject says it is Real State in Thailand]

This time I will not paste the text version of the email (I might add it late). Let’s instead just go right into business:

Why this phishing email is a disaster

Oh, let me tell you the ways!

  • It claims to be a CVS email asking you to click on the survey link so you can receive its malicious payload. Nothing special here; a lot of phishing emails do that.

  • The Subject: of the email has nothing to do with CVS or surveys in general.

  • The Subject: of the email is about some Real State Property in Thailand. So, Mr. Clueless Phisher, what are you trying to impersonate: a real state or a CVS email? Were you in a hurry and merged two distinct phishing campaigns together?

  • The grammar is also entertaining. I will let you pick your favourite bit.

Come on, Man! Does it have any redeeming features?

OK, if I had to pick one thing I liked, it is the sentence (I am trying hard to preserve the lack of grammar and the upper/lowercase usage)
