Synopsis: Stay on top of your x-cart security with details on an x-cart email phishing scheme.
As a service to our clients we want to ensure you're aware of x-cart security concerns.
Qualiteam has been informed that some customers have recently been receiving phishing emails similar to the one below. The purpose of such emails is to direct you to a site owned by the would-be hacker and have you send them their login and password.
If you receive an email such as this, delete the email. Also note that Qualiteam does not use the domain x-cart-noreply.com.
