Doesn’t mean they’re not out to get me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So I ordered some more PCBs, what, ten days ago now. This evening after dinner I was thinking, “wow, I should have gotten a ship notice by now…” then, a few minutes later, it showed up. That’s not the paranoid part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The shipping notice from the fab house was normal, package on the way via DHL, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
An hour or so later, I got a phishing email purporting to be from DHL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I get lots of phishing emails. I’m not going to categorize them based on quality, because to me, almost all phishing emails are low effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But I think it’s strange that I, who normally only gets DHL packages a couple times per year, get a DHL phishing email within an hour or so of an actual DHL package being sent my way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now I’m not saying there’s a connection, but if there is a connection, then either:
1) Someone’s got access to the fab house records;
2) Someone’s got access to DHL records; or
3) Someone’s got access to the “Deliveries” tracking app. (I entered the tracking info into that app like I do every time I learn of a package enroute). I suspect this, the rogue phone app, is most likely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If I’ve got any phishing expert mutuals that have anything to share, I’m all ears.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
