Southern California Wildfire-Themed Scams

Cyber criminals are currently exploiting the ongoing Southern California wildfires by
using Southern California wildfire-themed lures for their phishing attempts and scams.
Phishing is a type of social engineering attack that uses fraudulent messages to trick
people into sharing sensitive information1, such as account credentials or banking
information. Phishing can be conducted through emails, text messages, QR codes,
phone calls, and voicemails.
