This email came through my online contact form without being marked out as spam
I read so much about how photographers and other shop owners get scammed by suspicious emails, I wanted to point out this scam message that has arrived twice in my inbox.
Somehow, this message avoided being marked as spam. I went through internet logs to try to identify the city where my contact form had been used, and it’s a little unclear.
A phishing attempt?
This message is 100% unreal. It appears to be a phishing attempt to get me to click on the link, where I could potentially download a virus? It’s worth noting that the phone number is from a non-existent area code.

I always carefully read any message that comes into my business email account. Even with a contact form, the amount of spam I’m receiving is growing. Be safe out there people!
