Don't fall for "official sounding" email scams
23/01/18 Filed in: scams
Here's yet another example of a fishing scam email. Just because it has a company logo doesn't make it legitimate. If you are ever concerned about an email, be it amazon, PayPal, netflix, your bank, gmail, apple, facebook, etc… don't use the link provided. Go to the website yourself and type it in. If there's truly a problem with your account, you'll usually find it there. A very good indicator that something is not legitimate can be seen by clicking the right side (downward arrow) next to the email address in fhe "from" field. That reveals who actually sent the email. In this case, it's bogus. Another very good indicator is incorrect grammar and punctuation. As you can see in this example, it's full of it.
