The Atlantic Philanthropies foundation was the victim of a phishing attack. Spammers sent an email on behalf of the New York-based nonprofit saying that they were closing up shop in 2020 and to help spend its money was giving away $1 million to the recipient. The email included links to a malicious landing page which solicited banking and social security information from recipients.
