Cofense Intelligence's three-year (2021–2023) analysis finds shipping-themed phishing emails are a persistent year‑round threat—slightly increasing during holiday months—with peaks in June, October and November; attackers commonly deliver infostealers and keyloggers (Agent Tesla, FormBook) and use delivery methods such as Office exploits (CVE-2017-11882), HTML smuggling, and malicious attachments, with the manufacturing sector most heavily targeted.
