Recently some spam posing as an email notice from E-Z Pass has been going around. The EZ Pass spam comes from “E-ZPass Service Center” with an email address of team@miraclemi.org or support@wirenet.org.
The text of the E-ZPass spam is always some variation of this:
E-ZPass Service Center
Dear customer,
You have not paid for driving on a toll road. This invoice is sent repeatedly,
please service your debt in the shortest possible time.

The invoice can be downloaded here.
Of course, the link does not go to an EZ Pass invoice at all. In the samples that we have seen, the link goes to malware hosted by a site at occhioviterbese.it:

Hopefully you didn’t fall for it, but if you did, be sure to update and run your antivirus software.
