Stay safe online: cyber-security centre alerts visitors and residents to phishing scams
If you've recently received an email claiming to be from Junara asking you to log in, stop — it's likely a scam. The Isle of Man's cyber-security centre is warning residents and visitors using manx.net email accounts about a sophisticated phishing campaign that could compromise your personal information and your contacts.
Fraudsters are sending convincing emails that appear to come from Junara, the Island's new email provider. These messages contain links directing you to what looks like a legitimate login page. However, once you enter your credentials, the fake website captures your username and password, giving scammers access to your account.
Once they've gained access, criminals use compromised accounts to send phishing emails to your contacts, spreading the scam further and potentially damaging your reputation. It's a chain reaction that puts everyone in your network at risk.
Whether you're visiting the Isle of Man or living here, protecting your digital identity is essential. Stay vigilant, stay secure, and help keep the Island's online community safe.
