Phishing Alert - Fake Notices of Electronic Filing (NEFs)

Wednesday, November 6, 2024

There has been nationwide reporting of fake Notices of Electronic Filing (NEFs) being sent to attorneys and law firms across the country. These fake NEFs are phishing attempts to convince recipients to respond back to the emails. Once a recipient replies to the email, they are sent a follow-on email containing a link to access a document that leads the user to a malicious website. Please exercise caution in reviewing all emails and validate case and case documentation through CM/ECF only. Do not download any attachments or click any links from unofficial or questionable sources.
