Phish glorious Phish!

Posted by

They say you should eat fish on a Friday (If you are a Christian) – but you should never ever get caught by somebody Phishing. I am assuming that most of you who read this blog are pretty web savvy and have never fallen for one of these fake email scams however we all get them.

Me personally, I delete anything and everything from my personal inbox that I don’t recognize. My online bank sends its own spam (0% interest for ever*) which I delete manually, and it sends recognizable emails too – which are skim read then deleted. It is surprising though how many scams are out there and by the law of averages some poor sap will get taken for a ride.

It may be some ignorant net n00b believing what they read, or it may well be you in a moment of inattention/... Pixies have eaten the rest of this post, apologies for the strangeness. Normal service will be resumed shortly.
