New Scam (1 Viewer)

Hello,

Twice in the last week, I have received emails which consisted of a receipt for a purchase on Norton anti-virus. Of course, I never made either of the purchases. The giveaway was the senders' email did not have a Norton domain. In neither case was there a link, only a 'phone number. There was no mention of which credit card was used. I also discovered a similar email in my junk file.
Just phishing!
Happy bird watching,
Arthur
 
Nothing new here, I got these years ago. Nearly as common as discount offers on postage stamps. And Norton itself (once respectable) became a scam, hard to distinguish from any other virus that demands money, except that it gets installed deliberately.
