Italian Post, beware: the scary message is coming to your cell phones
Another scam circulating about Poste Italiane, which has nothing to do with malware but is used to extort money
Many Italians turn to Poste Italiane for their postal services, whether it’s shipments, receipts or bills to pay. Others have also joined the Poste Pay banking service as the default credit card.
The problem that Poste, much like many other well-known companies and utilities, can end up as the injured party of some telematics scams. The Poste Italiane brand has already been used in the past by hackers to send fake messages and obtain sensitive data.
This is also happening today. A final phishing attempt that will certainly not please Poste, for the practically muddy name, nor the users who have been lured into this method.
The SMS to avoid at all costs: it is a message signed Poste Italiane, but it is a fake
This time, it’s neither instant messages nor regular emails. The bait imagined by hackers in the name of Poste Italiane circulates in the form of a fictitious and also very dangerous SMS.
We are writing to you in this case precisely to avoid this type of message. A particular communication can arrive at any time on your mobile number, but also very well executed, to scam you.
That is, a communication, as said signed by Poste, which warns of an alleged anomaly in its postal current account, to be solved by clicking on an unclear link below. 
Do not click on this link! This would cause a lot of damage, first to your personal data, then also to any postal account. In fact, the hackers have prepared a malware capable, through the aforementioned link, of extracting data, passwords and personal accounts.
An absolute danger of the virtual world, especially for loyal customers of Poste Italiane. There is nothing worse than getting fooled in such an easy and sneaky way and losing money to scammers, especially in very dark and difficult times for users.
