Don't give them any ideas, Bob! They can produce plenty of their own cunning schemes as it is!
Missus got a good one this morning .... "Notice of Court Appearance".
That would make you sit up straight in your chair and get your attention, wouldn't it?!
I wanted to examine it to get the fine details, but she deleted it on
the spot!
I use Mailwasher to intercept all my mail - which I normally download to my computer, as I use Thunderbird.
Mailwasher is brilliant, you can examine all the fine details of scam emails, see attachments, examine all the header details such as email origin information, and read the entire email - all without downloading it!
Then you can mark the source as a scam and blacklist it so it never bothers you again - and you can even bounce the email so it makes your email address appear as
invalid!
I've bounced scam emails and had the sender send it again, only a few minutes later!
He must have thought there was an error somewhere, stopping its delivery!
After the 2nd bounce, they get the message!
Cheers, Ron.
