I have a btinternet.com email address. Could someone please advise/confirm the correct procedure for reporting phishing emails that are constantly arriving in my 'spam' folder. Should they be forwarded to phishing@bt.com, or to report@phishing.gov.uk (or both)? Does anyone actually DO anything with regard to blocking the senders, or is it just lip service?
We would recommend forwarding this to phishing@bt.com and we also have more tips on what you can do to keep yourself protected, and what we do to keep you protected.
@Rach_H Thank you. I'm very conversant in the ways and means of protecting myself from scams. However, I have been forwarding spam emails to phishing@bt.com for a month or so now without knowing if it's worthwhile. I really just wanted to know if any action was being taken by BT to block these senders or remove their domain names altogether. If it's a case of swimming against the tide, I'll save myself the trouble in future.
The team do look into all the emails they receive, and work with website owners, domain registrars to prevent this happening @partyanimal, but I can understand your concern, if this has been ongoing for some time.
