Email Fraud Alert received from: Brent
I recently received an email with this subject line: YouTube Service sent you a message: Your video has been approved and I am concerned that it could be an attempt at defrauding me. Let me know in the comments section what you think, please.
I think the following:
Even YouTube Owner, Google (GMail) says; “Be careful with this message. Our systems couldn’t verify that this message was really sent by youtube.com. You might want to avoid clicking links or replying with personal information.”
AND – I have not uploaded a video in absolute ages.
ALTHOUGH – they did get the YouTube Office address right: 901 Cherry Avenue, San Bruno, CA 94066, United States
BUT – if you click on the link you are taken to ambasadasrbije.com.ba/yearning.html <== NOT Cool
