I have again forwarded it to phishing@virginmedia.com
but, I also want to forward it to Action Fraud who might actually act on the information, at NFIBPhishing@city-of-london.pnn.police.uk
But every time I try I get an error message stating the message is SPAM.
Message could not be sent to the following recipients: [NFIBPhishing@city-of-london.pnn.police.uk] (554 - 554 5.2.0 SMTP602 Message contains Spam Content ;id=H7BRhyhYya26AH7BRhBWnA;sid=H7BRhyhYya26A;mta=smtp2.tb;d=20190418;t=153433[CET];ipsrc=172.25.160.144;
)
How come your system can catch the SPAM when I attempt to forward it (legitimately), but cannot catch it before it comes through to my account in the first place?
and, why wont your system allow the reporting of phishing emails to Action Fraud?
Don't you want the police looking into these emails?
p.s. Since Virgin dumped google mail system, it's gone downhill rapidly. More SPAM than ever no matter how many filters and senders blocked and can't seem to delete or set up new alias email addresses. Just saying.
