Last Friday my manager walked by my table and mentioned an update to the parking policies. He said he sent me an email about it and I need to open it. I checked my inbox and sure enough there was an email straight from my manager about a new parking update. I opened it and hovered over the link he attached. It had all sorts of stuff like .tk and .ru redirects. Just a bunch of red flags. I looked at him and said it looks like a phishing link. He turned bright red and quickly walked back to his office. I asked my coworkers on Slack about this and they all got a similar email, but it had a proper link. I was the only one who got the phishing link. I visited the phishing link on DuckDuckGo mobile and it was customized for me. It said “Welcome <My Name>! Sign in to see the parking update: “ When I tried to visit the link later, the whole page was gone. Do you think my manager tried to spearphish me?
Anyone who thinks there must be another explanation should go play the lottery
The manager is just the idiot who got fished and accidentally forwarded it to op
How does the phishing page know who I am?
what the hell? which office is this? based on how few people are actually showing up to SF HQ, I'm amazed you and your manager were both in the office at the same time
Could be that your manager was checking security readiness of the team by phishing and seeing how many people click on the link. Atleast if I was your manager and got caught like that then that’s the excuse I would have given 😉
This is fascinating, I'm so interested to see how it turns out. Maybe give a brief explanation of what happened to your security team in the guise of praising their new phishing tests? "Getting the manager in on it, that's really good!"
Btw
Document everything
Lol this is too crazy to be made up
This is hilarious. Please keep digging and keep up updated in this thread. If this wasn’t an IT department pen test your manager could be in huge trouble
