Phishing email

Dear Team

I received this email supposedly from Virgin media today, but I am very suspect as it its authenticity from the email it came from

 

Can you confirm if this is a real email from you or if it’s a phishing email? Thanks

  • Hello Johnmor,

     

    Sorry to hear of the confusion caused by the recent email received, we cant see the image as it has been removed. If you could advise of what it advises or requests and the address it was from we're happy to check on it's authenticity for you.

  • Hi - I have been getting these same emails over the last few days - some to an email address which is not my main customer address. These are scam and your virus software should recognise that. Regardless of the name on the email -click on it and you will see the email address used for the scam - probably been hacked. DO NOT open any attachments or click on any links. - todays address used "Vrginmedia Mail. <allmad@tiscali.co.uk>"

    Virgin used to allow these to be forwarded to their security team but that seems to have gone now.
