1. Look out for misspellings, bad grammar, and strange phrasing.
2. Check if the email contains an offer that sounds too good to be true.
3. See if the sender address looks unfamiliar.
4. Be suspicious of any emails asking for personal information (e.g. account details, passwords or credit card numbers).
5. Don’t click on any links or attachments from unknown senders.
6. Don’t respond to unexpected messages – even if they appear to be from someone you know.
7. Look out for suspicious looking URLs – some phishing emails contain links to websites that look legitimate but are actually fraudulent.
