What is a
fraudulent email?
|
A fraudulent
(spoof) email pretends to be from a well-known company in an
attempt to get personal information from you. People who send
spoof emails hope to use your information ・such as credit and
debit card numbers or account passwords ・to commit identity
theft.

emails and the spoof websites often associated with them are
deceptive in appearance. However, they contain content that
reveals that they are fake. The most important thing to do to

What to watch
out for

Generic
greetings. Many spoof emails begin with a general greeting,
such as: "Dear GwebCash member."
A false sense of urgency. Most spoof emails try to deceive you
with the threat that your account is in jeopardy if you don't
update it ASAP.
Fake links. The text in a link looks valid, but then sends you
to a spoof address. Always check where a link is going before
you click. Move your mouse over it and look at the URL in your
browser or email status bar. If the link looks suspicious, do
not click on it, and be aware that a fake link may even have
the text "GwebCash" in it. If you are not sure about an
email, forward the suspicious email to GwebCash support
for analysis.
