You're that confident people know the difference between a real communication from a party they conversed with before and a phish designed to look like the same thing?
What I worry about is when software is used to scrape lists such as this and used to create
phishing based on actual emails, so you get phishes apparently from people you know using their actual words. When the botnets start doing that things could get nasty fast. Regards Marshall
If it's a bank, probably not. If it's a random online store, there's about a 99.9% chance it's actual junk mail and .01% that it's anything else.R's, John
