Re: A little test
I got 0/10 because I put no answer to all of them, would not have answered them, would have phoned the company, don't trust any emails like that!!!!

Re: A little test
Well tbh I wouldn't answer an email about anything like any of those questions asked of me.
I rarely respond to emails and get people to ring me

Re: A little test
Seven out of 10 here too, though I'm proud to admit that I only actually fell for one phishing attempt (my other two incorrect were calling a legit e-mail a phishing attempt).

8 out of 10
but I wouldn't have responded to any of them.
The other thing to do is know who you deal with and the senders address they send from.
general rule of thumb, use the telephone if unsure.. If no telephone contact is supplied it is a fraud.

Years ago I interviewed a guy who told me about how bad his business was lately, but that was all about to change because he had a relative he didn't even know about in Nigeria who was about to help him become rich. My tongue still has the tooth marks ...
Then I got an assignment to write about those 419 e-mails, got to interview a Secret Service agent and learned all about the scam, the gangs behind it, how some people followed through on them and were never heard from again or found dead. My assigning editor responded that he'd "never heard anything about organized crime being behind these e-mails." I just told him, "Well, now you have."
Re: A little test
6 out of 10,I thought things were scams when they were legit.
But like Sassy said I wouldn't give out bank details in emails like that anyway.
