Nationwide Notices of Electronic Filing (NEFs) Scam Alert

Wednesday, November 6, 2024

Please be advised there have been reports of fake Notices of Electronic Filing (NEFs) being sent to attorneys and law firms across the country from “@uscourts.gov.ecf.digital.”  These fake NEFs are phishing attempts to convince recipients to respond to the emails. Once a recipient replies to the email, the recipient is sent a follow-up email containing a link to access a document that leads the user to a malicious website.

Please take caution if you receive these fake NEFs. Validate cases and case documentation through CM/ECF only. Do not download any attachments or click any links from unofficial or questionable sources.
