We all know there is a lot of phishing out there and the bad guys are after our money.
Here is the latest phishing scam to appear in my e mail and it is better that most. It looked very convincing. The English was good. Real links were provided with the fraudelent link. Everything looked good at first glance.
But, 1)it arrived in my junk mail; 2) I don't know a Sarah Gillis; and 3) nobody owes me money currently. So, I contacted the real Interact company and they confirmed that this is a scam and they are working on shutting it down.
I have not included the fraudulent link that the scam provided. Nor am I including the real links that the phishers included to try and confuse the receiver into thinking they were dealing with a legitimate Interact site.
Beware and here is the body of the e mail:
Sarah Gillis has sent you an INTERAC e-Transfer (previously INTERAC Email Money Transfer).
Amount: $860.00 (CAD)
Sender's Message: here is the debt
Expiry Date: 25 Apr 2012

I got 1 such mail every week. 2-3 times a week I win 1.000.000 $ in a lotery, even tough I never buy any ticket and every 2 days a dictator from Nigeria will send my 10.000.000 £.

I've won so many Nigerian lotteries I don't know why I accept so many gigs.
90 seconds of pure laughs without a standing ovation!

Yes, they send me an Email that I will get the money next week. I only need to pay 500 USD to nigeria with Western Union to cover there expenses & charges. But the problem is I don't have the money, so if you could borrow me the money I will give you later 30 % of the 100.000.000.000 USD. Only put the 500 USD in an enveloppe and send it to me.
