Re: Safe way to read suspicious emails?
said by TR8  :Sometimes I get emails that Kaspersky AV disinfects. I get them regularly from Symantec.com. I kind of doubt they would be sending me viruses. Is there a safe way to read suspicious emails? Just be aware it is possible to spoof the "from" field of an email header; just because it says its from symantec.com doesn't mean it is.
Make sure your settings in your email client are secured, (if for instance it is Outlook or Outlook Express, set it to run in IE's restricted mode (which prevents scripts from running etc).
As above, I immediately delete any suspicious emails. |
