Phishing Emails

Here you can see that Phishing emails are getting a bit more sophisticated.  This email is in full HTML with quite a bit of legitimate looking info.  But I have highlighted two tell tale signs that this email was not sent by American Express.


  • The sent from domain is a Godaddy host (Secureserver, not AMEX)
  • Mouse over the hyperlink that they want you to click on and you will see that it is also not an AMEX domain.  Always try to use your status bar or mouse over to see where you are going before you go there.
