Threat Outbreak Alert: Fake eFax Message Notification Email Messages on October 16, 2013

http://tools.cisco.com/security/center/viewAlert.x?alertId=31333

I got an email that had an eFax in it as well. McAffee site advisor said it is a risky site and not to open it.

it is probably a scam, i have heard more people getting the same messages, try to use http://www.popfax.com,  they seam to be very professional and they never send me any scams.

I was dumb enough to click as I have a client with a fax number very close and I didn't look carefully enough.  Only opened it on my Blackberry - seems to be messing with my BBM and PIN capabilities...........

Actually, I was wrong.  The originating country is, I think, Brazil.

I just got a phoney fax, too.  Fortunately, my computer told me it couldn't be opened.  The country sent from seems to be Denmark or somewhere in Europe.  The file has the name pdf_efax_9057733019.scr.  I'm guessing the "scr" means "screw you!"  Definitely don't open it!

The number & eFax,ca domain in email are fake
Do not click on the link to zip & doc files not pdf as indicated in email.
The only purpose of this to infect your computer.
My arrived from IP 198.58.81.248 (smtp.gopher.arvixe.com / boxmylife.com)
First link points to brennerconsorcio.com.br IP 200.143.116.25
Second link points to ascija.com.br IP 187.45.240.113 where viruses are hosted

Received the same efax email as others.

The e-mail we received was a scam from a company called efax.com or efax.ca.  If you look them up you'll see them offering a 30-day free trial of their services.  If you look up on "ripoffreport.com" and search "efax", you'll see people complaining that once they get your credit card number, there's no way to stop them charging you.  SCAM!!!

I was too leery of clicking on the link to "view my fax".  If anybody actually did, I hope they post the results here.

Got the same efax email as others.  Visible links don't match what the actual links are which are 2 different websites from brazil.  That is an obvious sign it's spam.  Don't click!

this morning I received an email & the subject line said it was an eFax from this number.  links were included in the email to view the efax.....I didn't click on them.

I just received an email stating I have a fax from this number but none of the docs will open. Guess its spam

Me too. Virus scan.
