BT phishing email -- watch out

Sat 7 Aug 2021, 15:27

Just received the email below, supposedly from BT, about an update to terms and conditions of service, with a link that needs to be clicked before Monday.

Hovering over the sender's address shows it to be from starnursery@btconnect.com, and not from BT. Others have reported a similar phishing email some months ago, so watch out!

Almost fooled me.

Forward any similar attempts to phishing@bt.com
