Fraudster tricks like fake student loan relief offers or fake tech support scams have been a problem for awhile, but summer is an extra busy time for scammers, with consumer complaints about new tricks on the rise.

That’s what thousands of business users thought when they opened emails that looked like authentic replies to requests for information, as Small Biz Trends recently reported. Only problem? Thousands of these emails — sent out over seven hours on July 6 — actually led you to a site that transferred malware when you clicked on the link in your email.

Phishing scams like this one are common because they work: Busy people who think they’re getting replies to their own requests often click on links without a second thought, and then pay the price. To make sure this doesn’t happen to you, you’ll either need to avoid clicking links in emails or ensure you’re using a good anti- virus and anti- malware program. A jury duty call — that isn’t.

That’s weird and worrisome, so of course you pick up the phone. The ominous voice on the other end of the line: You’ve missed jury duty and now you’ve got a big legal problem on your hands: You’re going to have to pay a fine over the phone right away for failing to do your civic duty or you’re going to have to schedule an affidavit to resolve the issue and you’ll need to pay to set up the meeting. Otherwise, you’re going to be carted off to jail. That sounds really really bad and you’re actually not looking to make your own reality TV version of Orange is the New Black, so your only question now is how to pay your fine. The problem is, you just fell victim to a scam about which sheriffs’ departments in states including Virginia have begun issuing warnings.

Phone scams are common and the jury duty scam is a popular new way that fraudsters are trying to take your cash.

These texting scams may ask you to click on a link or to provide your account information: “Confirm your password here” or “Click on this Link to See What You’ve Won.” The information you provide can then be used to steal your identity.
