Found a 3 year old phishing email hiding in my spam folder yesterday
I was cleaning out my spam folder yesterday and found an email from "PayPal Support" that looked real. It had the logo, the right fonts, everything. I almost clicked it back in 2021 but something felt off. I checked the sender address and it was paypa1-security @ something. That single character swap saved me. Has anyone else found old scam emails that slipped past filters?
