A security alert from the Portuguese Tax Administration

The Portuguese Tax and Customs Authority (AT) has issued a warning about fraudulent emails impersonating the agency, sent via WeTransfer, urging recipients to click on malicious links. Taxpayers are advised to ignore these messages, as they are designed to redirect users to harmful websites.

The Tax and Customs Authority of Portugal (AT) published the notice regarding the fraudulent message that appeared. Some taxpayers are receiving emails supposedly from the AT, via the WeTransfer file sending website, in which they are asked to click on a link. AT also stated that these messages are fake and should be ignored. Their purpose is to convince the recipient to access malicious pages by clicking on the suggested links.
