Mae Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I just received an email from TCH. It said that my domain name is coming up for renewal in June. It instructs me to link and put in my credit card info. I thought I had it on an automatic renewal plan. Anyhow, I recently received a "phishing" email that was very, very official looking from Paypal. It turned out that it wasn't from Paypal at all. So I'm asking TCH - would you send an email like this? Should I forward it back to you so you can see? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Rob Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Send it to me or any other mod/staff and we can tell you. Unless you want to post the text here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Don Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Mae, I doubt it is real but please open a help desk ticket to the techs and let them take a look. You are right to be cautious I never follow a link that ask me to and enter sensitive information. before I look at the headers and can see if it is phony.

TCH-JimE Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Hello, The best way to ever check a phising email if you are not sure, is to log into your account normally. That is, open up a browser window, type in the URL manually (don't copy and paste from the email or type what it says) and login in. If anything does need to be done, then 99.999999% of the time, a message will inform you so as you login in. As said above, if your worried, post or PM the email to any one of us and we will take a look JimE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
