Fraudulent emails using “[email protected]” to deceive
 
 
Recently, OOCL is aware that there have been an increasing number of emails appearing to originate from “[email protected]” but are in fact sent by fraudsters. 

These emails may carry harmful malware and/or messages to deceive the recipients. 
 
Email recipients should always be cautious of phishing emails with some of the following observations:

•         Be cautious if you receive an email that you have not been expecting.

•         Check the email sender field and look carefully to see if it is indeed from “[email protected]” (and not, for example, from “[email protected]” or “[email protected]”) because the email address can be spoofed.

•         OOCL does not send executable file attachments by email and may likely be a fraudulent attempt to deceive you.

•         Hover your mouse over any embedded URL link in the email to check the true destination of the URL.

If you encounter a suspicious email from “[email protected]”, or have any doubt to the authenticity of the communications claimed from OOCL, please kindly contact our local representatives immediately.
