Discovering spoof email

Discovering Phishing and other attempts to empty your pockets may not be the easiest thing to do.

Most of us regularly receives emails asking us to verify our bank account, eBay, PayPal and other services by clicking a link. And unless you are on the alert all the time, it is easy to end up with empty pockets.

eBay has produced a nice tutorial where you are told how to spot a fake, and how to deal with it. The tutorial is eBay focused, but the actual methods are the same.

If in doubt - look at the tutorial!
