Received an email from “Yahoo”. It told me that I would need to update my yahoo account to the latest version otherwise I would not be receiving my emails after an almost imminent date. It contained a link. At first I thought it was just an update operated by the press of a button. So pressed the link. It looked very authentic asking me to enter my email and password. I was just thinking I hoped I could find my password when at the top of my iPad flashed the word “unsafe”. My goodness what an idiot!!, I nearly fell for it. Then common sense told me that I would have been warned weeks ahead if any update was necessary. Just to be sure I went into settings and looked at my account. Nothing there and no more requests. I am sure none of you would have been taken in. I thought I was much more savvy but caught in the moment I nearly was. Just thought I ought to post it as the whole thing looked so genuine.
