Please be Careful opening emails.
Treat all with suspicion even if from a friend or relative.
DO NOT OPEN attachments suffixed .ZIP or .RAR unless you already know exactly what is in it because someone has told you they have sent it. These can contain malicious programs hidden from your security software
Popular con's at this time of year include supposedly 'missed deliveries' and 'order queries' apparently from Royal Mail, DHL, amazon etc..
With the recent changes to BT Yahoo / BTInternet email logon, this is also a popular target.
Do Not follow links telling you that 'Your account has been compromised', 'You need to confirm your details', 'You have a suspicious transaction', they are all trying to draw out personal or financial detail.
Any doubts you have, you should contact your bank or the supplier directly. Do Not use contact details included in the email, they are likely to be false.
All the following in my SPAM folder are Malicious emails:
Have a Happy and Safe Christmas,
Ged
