Our upcoming podcast is focused on the information that a thief can gather from your Out of Office Reply.
One of the biggest targets with this information tends to be admin assistants, secretaries, or interns. The scammer learns that the boss is gone to a conference and then uses the information learned to pretend to be the boss and extract a financial reward.
So, a couple of questions for this morning.
- How much information do you think is in an out-of-office reply?
- How do you think that information would be used against you?
- Do you use an out-of-office reply?
