I can't really train the bayesian filter on these emails, as it would start to affect ham emails classification. I also assume that RBL's can't do much, as they would have to block everything from DropBox or SharePoint if they start blacklisting these emails. Is there anything else that could be done to block this stuff? Have others seen these types of emails?
I have noticed in the last half a year or so the rise in much more
focused email campaigns. I have some solicitor and accountant clients
who receive these scam emails which are a notch above the rest. The
English is good and correctly spelled. The footers look professional and
just like the ones from other offices in the trade. The wording is very
similar to the usual emails they receive - such as a reminders for
payments, or an enquiry about documentation for the sale of a house. The
emails often contain links to various popular cloud platforms - such as
SharePoint, DropBox etc. Most of the emails come from clean domains, or
from large webmail providers.
