E-mail Scam Alert

 

Random individuals and/or companies may have received a falsified e-mail with the subject title “Rejected ACH Transaction.”  This e-mail appears to be from NACHA – The Electronic Payments Association telling them that there is a problem with an ACH transaction they have originated.  The e-mail includes a link which redirects the individual to a fake web page which appears like the NACHA website and contains a link which is almost certainly executable virus with malware.  See sample below.
