Sending and Receiving Emails Suspected to Be Caused by Viruses (2nd Report)
We sincerely apologize for causing a great deal of inconvenience and concern to all concerned parties regarding the suspicious emails impersonating our employees.
Under the guidance of the system management company, we conducted an internal investigation in accordance with the countermeasures for suspected Emotet infection distributed by the Metropolitan Police Department Cyber Security Headquarters, but no infected terminals were confirmed.
One way to distinguish suspicious emails is that the sender's name and email address are different. Normally, our email will be "＊＊＊＊＊@miyakomesse.jp". In addition, the suspicious emails have attachments of encrypted Microsoft Office format or ZIP format malware files, and opening the files attached to the suspicious emails may lead to malware infection or unauthorized access. .
Therefore, if you receive an email pretending to be from one of our employees, please check the sender address. If anything below the @ mark is anything other than the above, please do not open the attached file or click on the URL in the text and delete the entire email.
In response to this situation, we will work to prevent the spread of damage and work to further strengthen security.
