However, cybersecurity researchers from Check Point Harmony Email have uncovered that some hackers are replacing all of that with a simple image. Instead of typing out a long email and risking being found out by typos or bad grammar, these attackers simply generate a promotional image - a flyer informing the recipients they’ve won a prize or are invited to participate in a some kind of competition.
The simplest thing to do is look at the email of the sender. These guys are good - I had one I almost clicked on because it replicated my bank's routine email so perfectly but the "chungwong@screwu.ru" gave it away.
