"Voter Registration ‘Error’ Phish Hits During U.S. Election Frenzy"

Researchers have discovered a new phishing email that warns U.S. targets that their voter registration data needs extra details.  The email supposedly comes from the U.S. Election Assitance Commission.  The email contains a URL and asks the victims to go to the website and enter additional information.  Once the victim clicks on the link, it leads them to a spoofed web page that sends any information entered on the page, to the adversaries. The additional information that the adversaries want includes the victim's name, date of birth, mailing address, email address, Social Security number, and driver's license information.
