| 1436305 | 2017-06-08 01:40:00 | I have had a few emails from different places that have ended up in my junk folder, Amazon in particular, saying that your order has been cancelled . I have not cancelled any orders, nor have I placed any orders that need to be cancelled, so I am at a loss to know what these emails are about . Has anyone had any emails like that? Does anyone know the reason why these emails are being sent? I'm curious . |

| 1436306 | 2017-06-08 02:04:00 | Probably phishing scams trying to trick you into clicking a link in the email and logging in with your account details. | CYaBro (73) | ||
| 1436307 | 2017-06-08 02:07:00 | that have ended up in my junk folder that should tell you all you need to know Its a fake/phishing email, NOT from Amazon or whoever at all Its designed to trick you into open it (which you did ?) , so they can either infect your PC or get your Amazon/paypall/bank details via a fake website its really email 101 :badpc: run an AV scan NOW . |

"Your Order Has Been Cancelled" was in the title line so I knew what it was. I imagined it must have been some sort of scam as I had not ordered anything. |

| 1436310 | 2017-06-08 22:35:00 | Sometimes its easy to get fooled, especially if in a hurry . My old boss got tricked into opening a fake DHL spam, as he was expecting a package sent via DHL . As soon as he opened it & clicked the link he realised what he'd just done :) Another chap I know would open most of his spams, just to try & find out why they were being sent to him :badpc: . Took me months to get him out of that habit |
