Spear phishing templates

Hello. Does anyone (including Knowbe4!) have a spear phishing template to share or ideas about how to create a spear phishing template? I generate custom templates for my phishing campaigns, and the question came up about spear phishing. I thought a) spear phishing is very targeted (maybe not a template kind of content), and b) how would the Knowbe4 system track a spear phishing campaign? Seems that I would have to track that manually.

Thank you for any and all input!

  Hi Terry,
  I do spear phishing and to be honest you just treat them the same as normal ones, the main challenge is to get a link on there so that they are identified. Using the KnowBe4 mail creation tool, to target the as a spear phish, use the sender address as a real one from your CEO and a group which is mainly executives. I tend to include a phishing link in there that refers to internal network location as ask something like "drop the bank details here and I'll pick them up" or as you say track outside by creating a reply address and see if anyone replies.

  Hope that helps

  Jon
