Scams like these

[AustraliaPoochie]

No, just classic Phishing scam emails throwing a wide net in the hope of catching a fool or three.

I mean, who has ever paid any medical practitioner via HotDoc?….

I did.
Was desperate for time off, when my ankle had a big issue.
Seeing the comments, tho, and the emails I got, where I hovered over thr sender, we ho knows what did occur.
Cut and paste is so easy now.

Seems too that a lot of the Indonesian education facs website students are now using it to send out scam/spam emails, or the websites with *.edu.id have been usurped.

My wife got the QF “your QFF points are expiring tomorrow” text. It included the link to the rewards suggestions. And postage was reasonable! Just as well the bank has their robust process in place and no loss incurred.

Did she reply to the sms/email?
And did she provide her card#?

Did she reply to the sms/email?
And did she provide her card#?

I replied
I provided her digital card details….this got changed instantaneously whilst on the phone to the bank's fraud department and her physical card cancelled and a new one is in the mail.

Lesson learnt.

Got an email allegedly from ex-owner of the company I work for, long-story-short asking for my bank-account details for a bonus transferred from OS. Also not to tell anyone else in the company because only a few are eligible.
Which … does anything sound fishier?
Sent details of an account which is empty, obtained bonus, felt a tad silly for being so suspicious!

I don’t know who UK Admiral are, but I am not “a loyal customer” and I am not going to “click here” to receive a reward even if you do email me 9 times in two days.
