Cyber virus victim: We lost £100,000 ‘in three minutes’

A small business owner from Birkenhead lost £100,000 “in three minutes” after one his employees unwittingly opened an email infected with the Zeus virus.

Jonathan Kemp, who runs varnish producer AEV Ltd, told Good Morning Britain their accounts manager opened an email claiming to be from HMRC on the same day Corporation Tax was due, before entering in confidential banking information.

How do I protect myself against this???

The reality is it is VERY easy to protect yourself. If you receive an email from an unexpected source, be wary!! And DON’T open it, and NEVER open an attachment.

It’s that simple.

These emails will, on the face of it, look very real. They could be pretending to be from big respected organisations such as Amazon, HMRC, DHL, Companies House.

This encourages you to open the email and maybe also the attachment…….DON’T.
