SCAM ALERT- The FBI – Federal Bureau of Investigation Internet Crime Complaint Center has received 560 complaints in which a victim receives an e-mail from E-ZPass stating they have not paid their toll bill. E-ZPass group is an association of 26 toll agencies in 15 states that operate the E-Z-Pass toll collection program. The e-mail gives instructions to download the invoice by using the link provided. When a recipient clicks the link, an executable file with aware malware downloads to the victim’s device. It does not appear the E-ZPass e-mails actually attempt to entice recipients to pay anything. Rather, the infected machines are reportedly used for advertising click-fraud. #SCAMALERT
