New Levels of Spam

Hi All, 

Over the past 2 weeks there has been a significant step up i the amount of SPAM. I realise that its Christmas so the people sending this up probably step up their efforts - but surely VM should be catching these obvious mails and stop them at source.. 

Is anyone else seeing this? 

For interest.. they are pretending to be from Temu, Boots, Sainsburys, TV licencing, Screwfix etc etc 

In each case, apparently, I have won a prize!! Garbage, of course.

Yup Temu pallets every day.

Saying that I did get one in Spam saying I had won a £500 Tesco voucher. Ha ha ha. Except I had so Christmas was on Tesco 👍🤶🎄🎉🍻

 

I'm not a Very Insightful Person (just a little bit, sometimes). I don't work for Virgin Media (but then nor do any of the offshore customer service agents).
