    I would NEVER use "The cloud". Or web based email for that matter. And I run Linux.

    I got a phishing email again 2 days ago...... They hacked into the CEFs site (cefcrc.com) and setup a dirextory,etc and were using thier site for the phishing.... I simply emailed and told them;gave them the link..... It was down the next day....... (Hopefully they tracked it back to them but I doubt it)

    What, pray tell, is your email based on? The US Postal Service?

    I get a lot of phishing attempts in my email since I have had it for so many years. And some of them are SO convincing, I've almost fell for them AFTER clicking the link. One of them was some type of "in the middle" attack (I am told) where attempting to get to chase from a foreign country redirected me to a special page that needed to verify my information ... it looked SO MUCH like Chase, but it made me so mad I reported it and Chase said it wasn't them!

    And yes, they spelled all the words correctly!

    The ones that make me laugh are the ones from Mrs Fraceskza jflkajdflowieur from Nigeria, who needs to wire me 150 million dollars because they can't find my uncle.
    :)
