More phishing messages via Booking.com and Novotel 0 ▲ Terence Eden 1 hour ago · Tech · hide · 0 comments A few days ago I booked a Novotel hotel on Booking.com - two days later I received these phishing messages via WhatsApp. Both knew my exact name, phone number, location of stay, and date of stay. Luckily, both were fairly inept. Let's take a quick look at them. The first came from a Portuguese business account. Obviously the name doesn't match that of the large chain hotel I booked with. The domain name doesn't look anything like what I'd expect from either Booking.com or Novotel.

The "Cancel" button on the bottom makes this look more genuine though. The second one is slightly different. This is from a much more generic business account, albeit a UK-based one. The date is formatted differently. There's no cancel button. But the wording is identical. So are these both from the same scammer? The domains were both registered on the same day -… No comments yet. Log in to reply on the Fediverse. Comments will appear here.
