JeffTT Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 We all get spam mail and sometimes I just delete and move on and some times I check the source and then move on, but the one below I received today bugged me, clearly trying to get you to click a link to goodness knows where, despite the spelling mistake on the word “inconvenience “ I guess some would be fooled. But five minutes checking and the source came back to a newly registered domain name GOOGLEACCOUNTSUPPORT.COM and via a UK Registrar company WEBFUSION LTD. A known spam mail as reported here: http://myonlinesecurity.co.uk/google-id-profile-inaccurate-phishing/ How is it these companies allow anyone to set up domain names that are clearly fake and will be used for the purpose of spamming ?? is there no regulations or regulatory body that over see this? or if so anyone have a link?

TonyB Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 Probably that site hacked to send out spam Jeff, like using a proxy server. You need to see if you can backtrack Quote
