Phishing Message

Description:

This email invites you to the UN ICSD summit in London, but it was actually already head in New York a few weeks ago (more information about the summit here: hxxps://www[.]un[.]org/sustainabledevelopment/summit/) Also, the UN doesn't have a UN office in the UK - so the UK phone number is strange. UNIC does exist (UN Information Centres), but there isn't one in the UK, and email addresses are normally @unic.org

Notes:

The emails listed on this site are only those that are reported to GT Cyber Security as phishing. You may likely receive phishing email messages that are not listed here; you should learn to identify phish emails and how to report them to GT Cyber Security (see links above).
You may recieve a phishing message whose text matches an example listed here, but has a different web link (that is a different phishing URL). Phishers will sometimes send out the same message to different email addresses, varying the url between a set of different phishing URLs.
