As the use of email has exponentially grown, the amount of dangerous emails has kept pace. Although most email users have learned how to be more discerning in recognizing many of them, the hazardous emails have also grown in sophistication. Additionally new or younger email users still need to be well educated and informed. Companies also should have well defined policies to assist and keep employees and guests from opening or responding to any potentially damaging message. The following categories represent common themes for email spammers and should be ignored:
False Emails | Virus Email Hoaxes | Giveaway Email Hoaxes | Charity Hoaxes |
Bogus Warnings | Email Petitions and Protests | Email Chain Letters | Celebrity Email Hoaxes |
Prank Emails | Bad Advice Emails | Funny Email Hoaxes | Unsubstantiated Emails |
Missing Child Email Hoaxes | Phishing Scams | Nigerian Scams | Payment Transfer Job Scams |
Email Lottery Scams | Miscellaneous Scams | Pharming Scams | Internet Dating Scams |
Computer Security | Virus Information | Email Security | Spam Control |
