Here’s another phishing email that showed up. Let me show you how I can tell this is a phishing email:
This one’s kind of funny – look:
“Dear Costumer:”
Is that someone who makes costumes… for Halloween?
They can’t even spell customer right. 🙂
Other tip-offs:
- “IONOSInc.” without a space between those words… sloppy. Companies don’t do that.
- It’s from “accountverfy@ionos-stutus.com” and that doesn’t look right.
- The website you click to (this is just one, large image) is: “ionoslogin.xyz” domain. Those “.xyz” domains cost like $2 a year, so this scammer evidently can’t afford a few extra bucks for a domain name.
- The reply-to is “reply_to@adobe.com” which doesn’t make sense.
Don’t get scammed, people!
