One for iPhone/iPad users relating to the Israeli spyware that made it into the press recently - mostly an issue for HVTs, as generally targeted attacks & not random/shotgun, but one to note 'if the cap fits'!https://threatpost.com/apple-emergen...ro-day/169416/

Watch for this NHS C19 Passport scam...https://www.emcrc.co.uk/post/beware-...vid-pass-scams
EMCRC
Beware of NHS Covid Pass scams
Action Fraud has received over 700 reports from members of the public about fake emails purporting to be from the NHS offering Covid passes as fraudsters continue to capitalise on the pandemic. The emails claim to be able to provide people with a “digital passport” that “proves you have been vaccinated against COVID-19”. These emails are fake, and the links within them lead to genuine-looking websites that steal your personal and financial information. Link verified.

Re: Heads up - "Constant Vigilance is the Price of freedom"
On LinkedIn I have been contacted by several pretty Chinese girls over the past few months. They all urge me to continue the conversation on WhatsApp. When I tell them I do not have or want WhatsApp I never hear from them again.
I wonder why WhatsApp is so interesting to the Chinese secret aquirrels. Anyway, you have been warned.
