 This yet is another PayPal E-mail Scam - Account Restricted version . Below you'll see the red flags and photos of the entire email that was received.  Extremely long sender email address. Combination of letters and numbers that have no meaning.  An unusual email subject heading that begins with RE : . ..  It mentions that the account is temporarily restricted vs. disabled. Restricted from what I'm not sure?? I guess their hoping we click the links to find out.  I have to give them credit for the images in the email. It goes the extra mile to include the app store images as well as legal information at the bottom of the email as well.  Check out the photos below.

 This post involves a Publishers Clearing House E-mail Scam. Seems like there trying to bate someone for $850,000 dollars.  I didn't even think that Publishers Clearing House still existed... Take a look at the red flags and photos below. The email subject doesn't even contain a subject. Its just an abbreviation with random numbers. The winning dollar amount is an extremely high number.  The scammer is pretty crafty adding a lot of demographical information, and how to respond via phone or email.  The email  name <mileone@tim.it> next to Publishers Clearing House. I'm confident in thinking that it's not coming from someone in the U.S. because they spelled the word ' check ' with a que   ( checque ). Maybe from a country in the Caribbean or an African nation..?

 This post contains an email scam posing to be from J.P. Morgan Chase Bank and its fraud alert system. Its a clever one, as it even has a button to click on that states your online banking ha s been disabled.  The typical scam red flags are listed below. The email sender doesn't have a professional or properly worded name. NOTIFICATION ID 1180 isn't going to cut-it. Not to mention the subject header.  There are links in the email that have already been disabled.  The message states that your account has been disabled due to multiple incorrect log-in attempts. One would hope that the account holder knows about their failed log-in attempts, and already requested an account reset.  Side note: Hopefully nobody falls victim to this if they dont bank at this institution.      Photo #1   Photo #2 J.P.

 This post involves an email scam involving Apple Inc. The email states that your payment has been processed and your shipment with your Apple Inc. product is shipped and on the way. Some obvious red flags are: ***The biggest red flag here is the fact that you should already know if you ordered a product from Apple Inc. *** The payment support email that is in the email itself is suspect,  judging by the length and format. It seems like it was auto generated. There is an invoice attachment with the email that's been disabled and cannot be downloaded.  The target email for this scam is addressed as the Bcc . and not the primary email address.  Take a look at the pictures below.

 This post is regarding yet, another promotional weight loss plan for "x" dollars per month. See the red flag details below. The email name is an infinitely long combination of letters and numbers. The images and links have already been disabled. There is very little text in the message body that explains the reason why its being sent to you. There is zero business information included in the text body of the email. A single one lined link isn't convincing enough. See pictures below.

 This post is regarding another Life Insurance scam from a " company " called National Family - Life Insurance Plans . Naturally the email has all the red flags of a scam. Bizarre long randomly generated email. Seems like an infinite amount of letters and numbers. Images are automatically disabled.  Unprofessional text and link in the body of the email. The lettering and font style in the subject is suspect.  A large life insurance plan ( $1 million for $1/day).

 This post is about a Asian E-mail Scam regarding a loan.  Its very simple and I have never encountered something like this. It as if someone got lazy and didn't even put any effort into trying to scam some one.  It simply just asks a question in the body of the email.  Some red flags are: It seems to be an email blast because its addressed to recipients and not anyone in particular.  It just asks one simple question and there are no links to click on to apply for a loan. I guess it's just hoping you reply directly.  Finally, the subject is in some Asian language. Not sure if its Chinese, Japanese etc... Regardless I wouldn't trust this. Take a look at the photo below. Photo #1 Random Asian E-mail Scam regarding a loan
