Scammer's email [email protected]
Victim Location BC V5Y 1P2, CAN
Type of a scam Phishing
I'm contacting you from Alpine Start Outfitters in Vancouver, BC. We received the email below earlier today. I have contacted Tim Hortons to let them know. I answered no to the question regarding whether or not the scammer tried to take money, but they're basically threatening us with litigation which would result in them taking money.
I've put my information down as the victim since I am the Store Manager. The scam was definitely aimed at our store, Alpine Start Outfitters. Please let me know if you need any more information from me.
Here's the email:
Hi,
My name is Russel Corbat and I work as an IT Security Manager at Tim Hortons Inc.
Around 7 hours ago, alpinestart.com has been involved to DDoS attack one of our private servers. As a result, we have been experiencing major disruptions in our network.
I had to take a close look at your web-site and I am almost sure that you have rather become a victim as well, instead of being a part of the attackers team.
So, before taking this matter to court and filing a police report, I am offering you a chance to fix this problem by yourself.
Moreover, I strongly suggest you to take this chance, as our attorneys were previously able to seize the defendant more than $417,000 by court action in similar case, just so you know.
However, the good news is the problem can be solved quite easily and you can even do it by yourself.
Tracking the requests sent by your web-site, our specialists identified the exact names of the malicious files used to DDoS attack our network.
Thus, you just need to delete these files and change the passwords on your web-site and the issue will be automatically resolved.
We would not like to involve most likely innocent people into any litigations, that?s why I prepared the list of files to be deleted, even though that doesn?t come within my duties. This will help us solve the problem once and for all.
I have additionally included detailed instructions on how to delete the files in a secure way. Make sure you study them before you start (pay close attention to item 3 of the attached instructions).
Download the report on malicious files and their uninstall instructions here:

Once again, we are in tune for a peaceful solution.
If you are not able to uninstall the malware on your web-site after reviewing the report, just email me and I will try to help you out with that (please do not forget to mention the case number, it can be found in the report).
In case you decide to ignore this message and the DDoS attack from your web-site to our network will be repeated once more, please note that we will contact our attorneys immediately and will have to involve police for further investigation, without giving you a prior notice on it.
