Overview
This service allows you to report a suspicious email, which may be categorized as either spam or phishing. First, it is important to understand the difference between spam and phishing.
Spam refers to any unsolicited, unwanted, and often irrelevant digital communication sent in bulk. It's most commonly associated with unsolicited email messages, but it can also include text messages, phone calls, social media messages, and even instant messages.
Phishing is a type of cyberattack where scammers use fraudulent emails, text messages, or phone calls to trick individuals into revealing sensitive information, such as usernames, passwords, credit card numbers, or social security numbers.
