Hover over Links

E-Mails require additional care

E-Mails enable attackers to use a wide array of styling options. Attackers can change the font size of the @ sign and make it incredibly small. This results in an invisible @.

Know your slashes

To craft a bad link, scammers need to use unicode characters U+2044 ⁄ and U+2215 ∕ in the link. They look slightly different to the correct slash /.

The correct slash is slightly longer and has a different angle. The bad slash is shorter and has a steeper angle.
