DocuSign Phishing Scams: A Growing Threat
DocuSign phishing scams have become increasingly prevalent in today's digital landscape. As DocuSign's popularity continues to grow, with over 1.2 billion users worldwide, scammers have identified it as a prime target for sophisticated phishing attacks.
How DocuSign Phishing Scams Work
These scams typically begin with an email that appears to be from DocuSign, containing a message about a document requiring your signature or review. The email often includes official-looking branding, logos, and formatting to increase its perceived legitimacy.
Upon clicking the link or button in the email, victims are directed to a fraudulent website designed to mimic DocuSign's official login page. Once credentials are entered, attackers gain access to your sensitive information and can potentially compromise your accounts and data.
Warning Signs to Watch For
- Urgent language: Phrases like "immediate action required" or "document expiring soon" create a false sense of urgency.
- Generic greetings: Legitimate DocuSign emails typically include your name, while phishing attempts often use generic salutations.
- Suspicious email addresses: Look carefully at the sender's email address—legitimate DocuSign emails come from domains ending in @docusign.com or @docusign.net.
- Suspicious links: Hover over links before clicking to verify they lead to legitimate DocuSign domains.
- Unusual document names: Be wary of documents with generic or unexpected names.
