The PJ police force has warned of a mass phishing email

The PJ police force has warned of a mass phishing email being sent out using their name to try and gain user data or install malware in recipients’ computers.

The email claims the receiver needs to go to a PJ station. PJ police said it had been tipped off by numerous citizens who have received the scam email and urged people not to open the links or give personal info. According to a study by Kaspersky, Portugal has the world’s second highest number of users affected by phishing attacks after Venezuela.
