I have recently received an email which I havn’t seen posted before. A picture of the email has been attached, I would like some more information on whether this is just a phishing email or something else? The IP address comes from Los Angeles unlike others that come from Korea and China.

Thanks in advance!

To avoid the emails about it – a trick i have learnt is to:

Right click the email (not the link, the actual email) → then click “View message source” → proceed to read until you find an IP Address (usually on the second line) and copy paste IP into google and search for the country it is from (most fakes are from China)

Hope this helps keep people from clicking false links!
