We received an incident report this morning regarding a phishing email that was sent to some PetRescue members via this email: reply@ascend.wix.com.
Here's a screengrab of the email shared by our member:
This email was not sent by the PetRescue team and we would advise you to block this email address immediately and refrain from clicking on any links in the email.
This is clearly a phishing attempt (a process where someone is trying to gain access to your Facebook account). An official PetRescue email will always come from a PetRescue domain ("petrescue.com.au or "petrescue.org.au"). Variations of PetRescue's official email, i.e info@petrescue.org.au such as petrescue@gmail.com or petrescue.admin@gmail.com are not affiliated with PetRescue Ltd. and could be untrustworthy.
Additionally, PetRescue staff will never ask for your password.
Our team has now reported the offending website to the provider.
Thank you,
The PetRescue team
