Hi,
It is important to keep everyone aware of phishing
attempts, but it's
also important to make sure when you send warning emails to simply
delete the actual URL that the criminals provide so that nobody
accidently clicks on something...
As someone that tends to investigate a lot of things -- though not this
specific one -- I appreciate breaking, but not removing, URLs.
E.g.:
www.example.com
Becomes:
wwwDOTexampleDOTcom
or
www.exa BREAK LINK mple.com
So the data is there but is rendered safe for people.
Kind of like making sure that 400V capacitor was
discharged before
handing it to your lab mate in class :-)
What?!
