Email scams are becoming harder to spot. A message may look like it came from your bank, a delivery company, or even someone you know. One convincing email can trick you into clicking a malicious link, downloading malware, or giving away sensitive information.
Phishing attacks often create urgency so you act before thinking. They may claim your account is locked, a payment failed, or immediate verification is required. Knowing the warning signs can help you avoid falling into the trap.
Watch for these common red flags:
- Unexpected links or attachments
- Urgent requests for passwords or payments
- Suspicious or slightly altered sender addresses
- Messages asking for sensitive information
