I just saw one of those. It's especially convincing when they target realtors' address books, because everyone in a real estate transaction is expecting a bunch of docusign links to be flying around from their realtor and their title company. So if something doesn't look kosher, they attribute it to a clunky process and hand over their login.

This is exactly how my parents were phished. Interesting to hear it likely wasn't a coincidence that it came from their realtor.

I subsequently set them up with two factor almost everywhere, but I'd give at least even odds they'd fall for this, too. Sigh.
