It’s the perfect time of year to book a cruise because many are deeply discounted during the winter and early spring. Unfortunately, scammers know this as well and they’re sending out spam in an attempt to lure victims into believing that they’re getting a great deal. If you receive an email like the one pictured below, it is a scam out to steal personal identifiable information to be used for unlawful activity.

The email is purporting to be from valid travel agencies, claiming to save you money on your next cruise.
