Yes, that kind of scam can suck some in but it's up to management to educate employees on what to be aware of and how to detect and react to it.
The threat is so constant and pervasive though that it's hard for me to imagine that management in any government agency hasn't educated employees about how to deal with these kinds of threats, but not impossible because I don't have to imagine someone did bite.
I just can't make the leap that the FBI is to blame though. That's just a leap too far.
- weaksauce 9y agoThey share some of the blame. The FBI could have said to the parties involved, "you are going to be targeted by scammers looking to get your emails, be extra vigilant with what you click on." It's a difference between targeted attacking and fish net hacking or phishing without a target.
