Bogus rewards, claims or threats
Scam e-mails that appear to come from HKH Kenwright & Cox are generally badly written. A typical scam e-mail may indicate that:
- the addressee of the e-mail has inherited a substantial sum of money.
- a copyright lawsuit has been filed against the e-mail recipient.
These types of messages may contain malicious attachments or web links. If a user opens the attachment or follows the link, a malicious code or virus may be installed on the user’s system. On the other hand, they may be seeking personal banking information.
We suggest:
- Be very cautious when visiting untrusted websites.
- You maintain up-to-date antivirus software.
- You do not follow unsolicited web links
- Do not open unsolicited e-mail messages.
- Please do report scams to us in any event.
- Do not respond with money or personal information.
