Snowy Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Talking of dodgy emails my husband received one today - it looked just like an iTunes receipt. Luckily he asked me if I had used his account before he clicked on the link! It looked very very similar to a real iTunes receipt, but there was a link in it saying if you haven't made this purchase, click here to change your password. So beware! The real receipts don't have that message in them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 I remember getting one of those a while back - I don't have itunes so off it went to the junk immediately. Lots of postmaster ones being issued at the moment and daemon link things - your mail couldn't be delivered. Mostly that is supposed to be sent emails ohhh yeah, seems I've sent a few rejects - NOT! I guess it won't be long before some are referring to parcels. Perhaps they have been able to catch a few and prevent them from sending because I had such a lovely long break from them as at long last the busty Russian blondes got fed up with me and so did the meds. Although I do have some sheds and wood working things pop in. Only one or two sneaking through a week. Now it's back to 20 a day at least! And sorry, sounds like I'm smoking there!

Eggasperated Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 My main problem is emails purporting to be from BT, every month I get one saying there has been a problem paying my bill (and looking pretty genuine), however now I'm getting 3 or 4 various 'BT' ones a week. I've noticed that my spam emails seem to coincide with when I've used my Paypal account, which is a bit of a concern. After my initial worry about the BT bill ones I realised our account is not registered at my email address so now I just forward them to the BT spam address and then delete them.

Valkyrie Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Something is wrong. It's quiet . . . to darned quiet . . . I've not had a single junk thing this morning - usually it happens overnight so I'm guessing it's mostly from the US. I did however get a newsletter from a quilt shop (which I subscribe to) and they sell off extra fabric bolts when they are clearing up for new stock! Ohhhhh myyyyy! Maybe I should delete that one before hubby wonders why all his pension has been spent!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daphne Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Strange you say that about BT scams after you've used PayPal, I have had the same with TalkTalk and Paypal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
