Phishing attempt warning
17/11/2022 11:45:45MW Keller Solicitors has advised the Society of a sophisticated phishing attempt utilising the branding of the firm.
The email puports to come from a Michael O'Grady and invites recipients to download conveyancing documents.
While the branding is correct, keen observers will note that there are three 'lll's in the email, which emanates from a '.com' address rather than Mr O'Grady's correct '.ie' address. Current contact details can be verified through the Law Directory or Find a Solicitor section of the Law Society website.
