DocuSign Scam

Don’t Sign Off on This Scam

In this week’s scam, you receive an email that looks like it’s from DocuSign, a software that allows you to sign and send official documents online. The email doesn’t contain many details, but it claims that you urgently need to sign a document. It looks official, and even contains DocuSign’s logo, along with a large yellow button labeled “Review Document.”

However, the email you received was sent by cybercriminals! If you select the yellow button, you may be directed to a fake login page and prompted to enter your user credentials, or the button might direct you to a phishing website. It may even install malware on your device! What the button does varies, but the scammers’ goal remains the same. They want to steal your login information to gain control of your accounts!


 

Follow these tips to avoid falling victim to this phishing scam:

 

 In most cases, you won’t be asked to sign anything unless you have spoken to someone about it first. Receiving an unexpected email that instructs you to sign an urgent document is a red flag.

 If you receive an email that contains unusual or suspicious instructions, be sure to follow your organization’s policies for reporting it.

 Always stop and think before you click! Scammers use urgent language in their phishing emails to trick you into acting quickly.
