|
|
This morning, I received an email from "Google" saying on the Subject line: "You have exceeded your email limit quota." In the email, there is a link for me to click (see below).
The goal of this email is to trick me into clicking the link.
Looking closely at the From email address, it is actually NOT from Google, and this is the KEY to identify a fake and potentially dangerous email.
