BT scam email...

Maybe I'm just lucky, but this is the first SCAM email I've received pretending to be from BT Email. I'm sure all here will have the sense to throw it in the bin, and maybe BT can update their 'trash' filter system to toss it at source...

Hi @Stephen5000 👋
You can also report scam emails by forwarding them to report@phishing.gov.uk
The National Cyber Security Centre ( NCSC ) will then investigate it.
Well done for spotting it, as many wouldn't, and what gave it away for me was the spelling of 'premanently' 🤔🙄

I rather think the address it was from was a bit of a giveaway
