LiteForex Broker Warning – Security Issues

Posted: 22 Dec, 2008

LiteForex broker has discovered attempts by unknown third parties to obtain confidential information via one of the types of phishing. Phishing is a kind of Internet cheating, the main purpose of which is the illegal acquisition of trading account holder IDs. Phishing-attack organizers use mass emails supposedly from popular brands.

In this particular case they've purchased the domain name liteForexs.org, that looks like the real company address liteForex.org and have made fake messages that look like they are coming from our company.

If you get an email from Support LiteForex.org [eng.support@liteforexs.org] (notice the S, ladies and gentlemen) or any other message that does not correspond with the official Company Web site address, please, ignore them, better yet delete them! This is an attempt to obtain the personal information of a trading account holder, with the further aim of getting his/her funds. Pay careful attention to sender email addresses!

Fake emails look like this:

Hello Traders!

This email is to confirm that you will get the Christmas Trading Bonus and credited to your account Ballance.

The following are your Trading Bonus details:

Bonus will be added to your Balance at 24 December 2008

A confirmation email will then be sent to your specified email address.
