Great post & thxs for the heads up about this Phishing scam. Its strange that this is happening with the Domain Email Server - Tutanota. Tutanota is very secure & is very privacy oriented. So, its a bit of a surprise to me. Regardless, thxs all the same.

To avoid phishing email scams, you must first be very, very careful.

Do not open every mail you receive.

Pay close attention to who it is coming from.

Do not trust every website.

In short, be very careful.

It is really important to be very cautious with your personal information and actually some phishing scams divert you to a fraudelent websites, design to look like your bank's website or similar trusted source.

Hello,friend.this is true.It often looks like this, usually in a spam box.  I usually meet instead of asking in unsubscribe but there is a phishing link when clicked.Hard work like Satoshi is something that should be included in the soul of every human being.  I’ve seen a grace hunter make 1 1 million and it’s not imaginary.

I am using one great alternative for Gmail and it is called Tutanova email.

Today I received one email in my Tutanova account, with this content, asking me to 'update'

First thing you should do when you receive email from anyone is DOUBLE CHECK his email address and not just his name.

Here we can see that name is fake Tutanova Team, and real email address is rhody.ezekiel....

That is first Red Flag.

You should never click any links i your email (example is Resolve Issue Now) and never download any attachments

 

When I hover over that blue field, it can show me short link scammer is using /they often use this tactics to steal your data and crypto)

You should NEVER visit this links.

 

 

This is where links is directing next

FAKE Tutanova website, asking you to enter your details, email and passoword.

Always double check Address bar, and you can see some random web address.

NEVER enter any details.

 

They are using same tactics for Gmail, and all crypto Phishing websites, like fake Ethereum and other coins Airdrops.

If you learned this now, you can apply to any similar situation in future.

 

Stay Safe,

HEX

I only use one way I remember every time what I subscribed if I received any other email I can't notice on it I ignored that type of emails because I don't focus on these emails now some users raised questions how I ignored them I only ignore them by my mindeset it's the good way because I think that when I go on my way and dogs bark on me if I stopped and replied to them then I can't reach at my destination the only way is ignoring that one and keeping my walk so if you focus on these types of emails then we waste our time only.

Despite you ignore such emails coming into your mailbox, there will be still chances to click accidentally such emails with the malicious link. You can't even realized when did you commit mistakes but hackers already manage to steal your sensitive information including your IP address. The best way is, block all the spam email senders in your mail box.

If you receive a lot of spam emails, you can build a filter that only allows trustworthy senders into your inbox. As a result, any unsolicited email communication would not reach the main inbox, and you won't have to worry about phishing or spam.

Thank you for this useful information. I will try this. I usually use two-factor authentication for all accounts. Is this enough to prevent fraud?
