Phising Scam to Club members

6 years 1 month ago
#77577
Hello Support,

I would like to report a Phishing scam sent to club members. The impostors spoofed my name over their email addresses.

What can we do to protect our club members from this type of unwanted emails that could be unfortunate if carried out. Only club members in my contacts received this.

How secure is Free Toast Host?

We need to see the full raw email header to see exactly where the email come from.

FTH is secure the issue is spoofing and that is why we need full email header to see where the email originated.

I recommend you also change your gmail password.
Thank you,
