Analysis Summary

A new phishing campaign spoofing Skype, the popular video calling platform that has seen a recent spike in use amid the need to keep employees connected as they work remotely.

Clicking the link in the email, the user is shown an impersonation of the Skype login page. To add even further sense of authenticity, the threat actor adds the recipient’s company logo to the login box as well as a disclaimer at the bottom warning this page is for “authorized use” of that company’s users only.
