I have recently received a multitude recently of e-mails that say: ACH transactions denied, job application attachments and banks that look very real using the companies actual logo in an attempt to make them look real. I even received a Pay Pal notice stating that some attempted to log in to my account stating I need to click the link to take care of the unauthorized use of my account.
Never open a attachment or link on an e-mail before going directly to the site and logging in that way. Turn these people in as we must stop these mean and greedy down right cruel people that only want to harm you. On Pay Pal they have a security site. Forward the suspicious, spam or scam e-mail to the proper companies by going to their website and going to security as they will direct you how to proceed.
These are some ways you can tell if it is a fake e-mail:
- Is your actual name in the To:
- If it says undisclosed recipient do not proceed
- No bank send e-mails asking for information
- Go directly to the website in question or call the company
- Do not call the number on the e-mail
- Never open a link or an attachment
- Take the time to forward them to the security department of the company in question
