Frauduleuze mails melden

You're referring to fraudulent emails!

Fraudulent emails, also known as phishing emails, are emails that are designed to trick you into revealing sensitive information, such as passwords, credit card numbers, or personal data. These emails often appear to be from a legitimate source, but are actually from scammers trying to steal your information.

Here are some common types of fraudulent emails:

  1. Phishing emails: These emails try to trick you into revealing sensitive information, such as passwords or credit card numbers.
  2. Spam emails: These emails are unsolicited and often contain fake offers, scams, or malware.
  3. Malware emails: These emails contain malicious software, such as viruses or Trojan horses, that can harm your computer or steal your data.
  4. Scam emails: These emails try to trick you into sending money or personal information to the scammer.

To protect yourself from fraudulent emails, follow these tips:

  1. Be cautious with links and attachments: Avoid clicking on links or opening attachments from unfamiliar senders.
  2. Verify the sender's identity: Check the sender's email address to make sure it's legitimate.
  3. Watch for spelling and grammar mistakes: Legitimate companies usually have professional-looking emails with proper spelling and grammar.
  4. Don't respond to suspicious emails: If an email seems suspicious, don't respond to it. Instead, delete it or mark it as spam.
  5. Use strong antivirus software: Install and regularly update antivirus software to protect your computer from malware.
  6. Keep your software up to date: Regularly update your operating system, browser, and other software to ensure you have the latest security patches.
  7. Use two-factor authentication: Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) whenever possible to add an extra layer of security to your accounts.

If you suspect you've received a fraudulent email, report it to the relevant authorities, such as your email provider or the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
