Suspicious email from Hinet

Can anyone tell me what this is all about? The wife has no idea, I don’t remember doing anything with Hinet on the date mentioned. I’m not sure if it’s an invoice or a receipt or a ticket or what. I’m reluctant to login to this website mentioned and wholly puzzled by the email.

Scam, ignore

That’s what I think. But in 2011, CHT changed their billing (for whatever eff*ing reason)… and I’m wondering if it’s related to my KKBox Account. But I’ll be damned if I’m logging into that site, just to find out. KKBox just charge our regular CHT account, so I see little reason for this additional bill. We do not use any other Hinet service apart from FTTB which is also billed to our account.

I’ll have to call CHT tomorrow.

don’t click on that link whatever you do, in fact you should delete it lest some unwary soul might

Yeah the only thing to look at is the domain name: bill.0800080412.com.tw. Hinet isn’t going to use a random string of numbers for their web site. Case closed.

Actually the string is their phone number … have a look at their billing FAQ

But if you want to be sure, send them an email or call and forward the received email …

At least report it

I linked through a KOD service page (KTV ondemand service)

After querying for the phone# 02 23443581 this came up …

ePKI is a certification site
