If you received an email from Razer recently that talks about a new sponsorship opportunity, you may want to check out the URL before you go clicking. Razer informs us that a number of spam messages have been sent out in their name that promises free sponsorship. In reality, the emails contain links to malware.
Just something to keep in mind going into this weekend.
WHAT: Razer's global brand and gamers' love of esports is being targeted by scammers.
A fake email offering a free streamer sponsorship from Razer hit the Internet last week. This email is a scam and recipients should not click on any of the links within the email as it will launch a malware application.
Scam Indicators include the following: The email comes from a Gmail account and not from a Razerzone.com account; Razer is misspelled in the email address as “Razorzonesponsorship”; The email body contains spelling and grammatical mistakes that are common in scam emails.
