phishing emails attack
Hi guys.
In the last week, I have been getting quite a few "phishing" emails.
6 from one crowd purporting to be from an Australian bank, saying "a term deposit has been opened.."
I deleted those, unopened. (then researched and found it to be a common scam)
Today but, I got another one, from a different crowd, saying (to the effect of..) that some administrator from Facebook wanted..(whatever it was ..) and 2 links.
But not cleverly enough I opened one link, and (..of course) Avast jumped in with a Malware warning.
I don't have Facebook. I don't use Facebook.
I am cool with all my Antivirus, and have checked and erased and cleaned my whole computer, but where did they/them, get my email address from?
Only 6 people know my email address.
What do you reckon ?
