Stolen accounts that directly deal with or store financial information (e.g.
emails, social networking, social media, messengers, etc.) criminals can ask contacts for loans and/or proliferate malware (by sharing infectious files) under the guise of the genuine owner. Therefore, through a stolen email, all of the associated accounts can be hijacked. Scammers/Cyber criminals are particularly interested in email accounts, as they are typically connected with various other accounts. Furthermore, the page even states to "never submit passwords through Google Forms". The web page through which users are to access the document is not a genuine sign-in/verification page. These "One Drive" emails are fake and no file has been sent to the recipients.

The page contains two fields into which the email address and password must be provided. When users click the "ViewOneDriveDocument" button, they are redirected to a Google Forms page, which claims that they must sign in with their email account to review the document. The file is allegedly named "August-2020 #New_order.pdf" (this might vary). The messages also contain the date, the document was supposedly shared. The scam emails with the subject/title "One Drive" state that has shared a file with the recipients. The messages sent during this spam campaign claim a file has been shared with the recipients, however, when they try to access the file, they are asked to provide their email account credentials.
The term "spam campaign" defines a large-scale operation, during which thousands of deceptive emails are sent. "OneDrive Email Scam" refers to a spam campaign used to steal email account credentials (passwords) via Google Forms, a survey administration platform.
