Alert:
Potential email scam regarding H1N1 vaccinations and collection
of personal identification information
Some providers have reported receiving
a potentially fraudulent email similar to the following (Click
hereto see an example).
The email appears to come from CDC but instead points users
to a fake website that may be phishing for personal information.
Providers are advised to avoid clicking on embedded links
to sites that are not familiar to them. If you receive such
an email or have questions about the authenticity of emails
received from CDC, please avoid clicking on any embedded links.
You may verify the authenticity of any suspect emails with
an IT specialist in your agency.
