Re: Suspicious Emails

 

Are they purporting to be from gov.uk? or a variety of senders. Maybe you can only report to that particular phishing addy that pertains to gov.uk.

I have taken to going up to my ISP webmail on their server and sorting/eliminating any junk or mail I don’t want before it even gets to my Mac. In doing so I am teaching the mail server a bit extra apart from what it’s already programmed to recognise as junk.

I’ve not struck anything behaving as you describe as yet down here in Oz. Though certainly I have noticed there have been days junk arriving has raised my antennae.

I’m sure you’re right about Action Fraud being underfunded but my worry was that these obviously potentially harmful emails got into my Inbox yet could not be sent on out again. If I get any more like that, I may ring Zen directly to find out why this happens. Their customer support is prompt and knowledgeable but I’m not always good at explaining my problems. While setting up my new Mini, I noticed that the setup instructions when we were transferring from BTInternet were dated 1993! I kept it because it had our username and other details - on paper, remember that old material? :D

Hi Susan!

I hear you :-) I’m getting spam/phishing emails, e.g. TV License (sic) expired, but they’re going to my Junk folder automatically. I’m not trying to forward them to anyone.

Given that the Government’s commitment to online security is sketchy at best (Action Fraud weekdays business hours only, for instance), I’d be willing to bet that the phishing department is understaffed and underfunded.

A larger than usual number of suspicious emails has been coming my way recently. Usually, I can forward them to report@... but a number of them have refused to be forwarded; these look as if they are loaded with something potentially harmful. I am in contact with Zen Internet about these but had deleted them already because they ensconced themselves in an Outbox and kept popping up when I was sending email, so could not be ignored. Anything like this happening at your end of the table? What I am wondering is: how did they get through to me if I cannot forward them onwards?!

No, I’m not setting out to explore. I seem to have trouble setting the Safari version on my iMac (14.1.2, running on Mojave 10.14.6) to make use of its ability to free certain web sites from the clutches of AdBlock. I can do this on the version on my MacBook Pro, 15.6.1, so what do you think I might be doing wrong? I can make Chrome perform this function. Any suggestions please?

I have the turntable but we are so cramped in this little house that I can’t get it near enough to my iMac; it’s actually in my hobby shed in the garden, where I play EverQuest and have my radio. All surfaces are taken up by stuff including a printer that needs attention to make it work. I’m hoping the rising energy costs won’t stop me using my shed but you never know. Damn Putin cutting grain shipments off as well; I wish someone would do him in!

Re: Backing up iPads

 

I’m a dinosaur I have music on CDs - remember those. Gave the vinyl away though:-) I use Spotify - in free mode mind you because I’m mean.

I really don’t have my head round the Cloud. I back my Mac and iPhone up to my iMac which then has TM.

Internet steady and dies most things we want. But can buffer a bit on occasions on smart tv.

Our landline is ADSL2+ - no NBN this area. Some people up our valley have invested in Sky Link - $1000 antenna and install and $140 a month (Au $s).

I’m waiting for new phone mast in the area and will probably go with a 4g connection.

Should move back to Kent - all the spies must be there as internet speeds are good. But that would be a big move. :-)
