Almost Phished! (1 Viewer)

We get a lot of email traffic in to our business accounts so I tend to rush through them deleting spam and then dealing with the valid mail.

This one almost caught me out as parcels are a regular thing and with 3 adults who online shop I dont know all the parcels we do expect. Fortunately I spotted the dodgy source address (and hyperlinks) and the bad language in the main text.
Its a convincing attempt that could catch a few out!

The from email address is the biggest give away.

Also. The best advice I can give is NEVER click on a link in an email.

The only exceptions to this is if you have just signed up for something and they tell you to expect a confirmation email.
OR
You have taken an action on a website and are expecting the email. For instance order something off Amazon and get an amazon email with details that match within a reasonable time frame. Be aware that it may be possible get unlucky and get an Amazon scam email at any time though. So read the email to see if it matches what you are expecting.

But REALLY. NEVER click on a link in an email.
