Do you received unsettle spam mails?

[Irine]

Hello guys i would like to share this information to all of the people here at Askgamblers. Please, we all know that when it comes to Online gambling we receive lots of spam mails that was commonly promotions, invitations and others...  Please be aware that some of the bad guys or hackers can bypass your main inbox and you will not know the difference. If you click it then you'll be redirected to unsafe web page then there's a chance that your email account will be hack. Then that is the starting of spam cycle check your mail if you find suspicious emails but don't click it just delete it or scan if it's available.

I find these tips online and you can use it to prevent malwares. (It's better to feel safe than sorry.) 
 

Tips on handling spam email:

·         An up-to-date, comprehensive security solution for the computer with an integrated spam function will use a filter to protect the PC against such incoming email.

·         Email from unknown senders should be treated with particular caution. If an email looks very strange, here's what to do: ignore it, delete it, but under no circumstances open attachments or click on URLs.                                                                                                        ·     Opening file attachments, especially from unknown senders, harbours risks. Attachments should first be scanned with an antivirus program and, if necessary, deleted without being opened.

Links in emails should never be clicked on without thinking. Check the URL. Many email programs permit the actual target of the link to be seen by hovering the mouse over the visible link without actually clicking on it – the so-called mouse-over function.

·         If you find out that one of your contacts is sending unusual emails or instant messages, contact them – ideally using a different communication channel than the one via which the suspicious message came.

·         Spam email should never be responded to. All a response does is indicate to the fraudsters that the address they wrote to is actually valid.

·         Never disclose any personal information and/or bank data – either via email or on dubious websites.

·         Never transfer money to an unknown person. Never thoughtlessly publish your own primary email address online, e.g. in forums and guest books, as it can be accessed by fraudsters there. It is useful to enter a secondary address for these purposes.

I wonder why some of my casino invitation always go to the spam mail? I configure my settings about filtering of emails but i don't know why some of my chosen invitation always got spammed. I'm too afraid to open all of that spam mails cause iv'e read that some may be a fake copy of casino invitation/promotion for example fortune lounge iv'e seen plenty of their invitation. Any advice about this Lady Sharon?

Iv'e always verify the promotions or invitation before i click it (if it's interesting bonus) via chat or email.      P.s The askgambler informative bonuses or bonus notification were so useful for verifications.

They go to your spam folder simply because your mail provider got more than enough spam alerts for this source.

It's always best to confirm a bonus in Live Chat first...so then nothing can come back and sting you.

 

But to be honest if I was to look at my Spam folder now and go through the emails I can guarantee that 99.999999% of them would indeed be SPAM!
