I had a weird spam problem yesterday. I started getting the same total BS fake message from "AT&T" that someone is trying to log in and change my password. It was pretty easy to see that the message was really from some fake email address. I double checked with the real AT&T and my account was secure, and it still needs two step authentication to log in, and all was fine.

I set up a rule and all the messages started going right to the spam folder, and it stopped notifying me that I had a new message. I ended up getting over 120 of the same BS email messages. I just let the rule do it's thing and when it stopped sending I flushed all 120 of them at once.

I can't figure out why they would send me the same thing over and over. Just one would get a stupid person to click on the link. 120 is just a giant red flag of a scam. It makes me happy to have Outlook and the ability to set up rules for email.

Oh well, who ever thought scammer were smart.
