Thanks for the tip off Earl
The one that can catch you is the one where they say so much is being taken from your account to pay for a transaction (a transaction you haven’t made)
It could throw a few into panic to start revealing details they need not -
Apparently its done the rounds in England but this is the first time Ive seen it here in German.
I had just paid something via Pay Pal and thats what made me wonder if it was real.
The link that was at the bottom is now dead. -
Easiest way not to get caught out by things like this is to never click on links in emails you receive if they are asking for any sort of details.
If you think the email may be genuine then just close down your email and log in to your account the way you would normally. -
