10 Olympics-Themed Phishing Scams To Avoid At All Costs

This scam is in the form of a letter or email that tells the recipient that they had been shortlisted to be a ring steward for the Olympic Games. The message informs the recipient that they will be contacted again in due course if the recipient is selected to be a ring steward and purports to be sent from a given individual. Recipients are asked to call a phone number for additional details, whereupon they are asked to disclose sensitive, personal information. Sounds like a lot of horse ... oh never mind!
