'Google Form' Email Scam
The 'Google Form' email scam is a slightly updated version of classic email tactics, which tell recipients that a millionaire from a different country wishes to transfer some money to them. However, users who try to take advantage of the offer may become engaged in a lengthy tactic whose sole purpose is to take their money. One common strategy that the con artists use to collect money is to tell the 'lucky recipient' that they need to pay a few hundred dollars to cover the mandatory bank processing fees. On top of this, the fraudsters might request personal information such as names, addresses, phones and more.
The 'Google Form' email scam, in particular, starts the tactic by asking the user for personal information, which they must provide through a custom Google Forms page. The latter is a legitimate service, but it can easily be misused with threatening intent. Users who interact with the Google Form of the fraudsters may be asked to provide all sorts of information to confirm their identity and proceed. The con artists also list the email address johanaab01@hotmail.com as the only way to continue talking to them.
You should not trust email messages that claim to inform you that you have just received a massive inheritance or another great reward that you did not expect. These emails will almost always ask you to cover some fee or tax before you are supposed to receive your items or money. Needless to say, agreeing to send money to these people means that you will not hear from them again.
