This will be a quick post. We have received a phishing mail to our info@lemmy.world mail address telling that they are “lemmy.world Security Team”, telling that they will “disconnect” your account from our instance. This is ofc, not us. Do not fall for it! The attached image is how the mail looks like.

When’s the last time you checked your spam folder, 2003? I legitimately haven’t seen the 1337sp34k spam in 20 years. Lately it’s been Africans leaving me money at the embassy that I have to go pick up

For some reason I seem to be getting a lot of spam emails in French. And all of the links are pretending to be French Canadian postal service websites.

I don’t know why because I’m neither French nor Canadian. Nor have I ever been to Canada.

The subject is sometimes a word with random capitalisation and potentially letters replaced with numbers or symbols.
