Fake Email Verification Link Stealing Passwords

A confirmed phishing link is disguised as an email verification page to trick people into handing over their login credentials. If anyone in your family clicks it, their account details could be stolen immediately.

What to do: Do not click any link asking you to 'verify your email' unless you are certain it comes from a trusted service — when in doubt, go directly to the website by typing its address yourself.

What this means for your family

If someone in your family gets an email asking them to verify their account, be careful — it might be fake. Clicking these links lets scammers steal passwords and access real accounts. Always type the website address directly into your browser instead of clicking email links, and teach kids to ask before clicking anything that seems unusual.
