Protect your E-Mail Account
Ignore Fake Emails about your account
There have been a wide variety of emails sent to our clients claiming to be from Interpool Hosting Support that state there is a problem with your account, or emails have been frozen, and you must log into your email account now to correct those problems or change your password.
Interpool Hosting does NOT send out emails like this, although some of the scammers have done a good job of pretending to be us... if you hold your mouse (or finger on a mobile device) over the link you will see it is not one of our domains:
interpool.ca
interpool-hosting.ca
interpool-hosting.com
cobourgcloud.com
By logging into these fake sites with your email address and password, the scammers now know your credentials and can use that to send spam or try to gain access to any of your other accounts (like FaceBook, Banks, etc) using the Recover Password function. Be Careful!
What to do?
Simply delete and ignore these attempts to get your email address and password. If in doubt forward a copy to info@interpool-hosting.com or call us to verify.
