In the last few days, SophosLabs witnessed a new wave of phishing spam campaigns targeting Telstra, the largest phone and internet service provider in Australia. Telstra supports more than 18 million customers for both fixed line and mobile phones

This makes it a worthy target for phishing attacks. This wave of scams includes two kinds of phishing messages: one uses the Telstra brand, while the other takes advantage of BigPond, which is a subsidiary of Telstra.
