Scam or not?

Simon2025 — Thu, 21 Sep 2023 11:26:12 GMT

E mail purportedly from Sky this morning stating - we have prevented delivery of 5 emails to your in box as of *21-09-2023* because you have a older version installed.

To view your message click on the link below .....

I haven't but further email received about an hour later ' Prior to Sky Agreement ' etc seeking to hit a further link - 'Click here to cancel termination.'

Beware - looks very dodgy!

That is scam, it is a slightly different one as I haven't seen it reported before but a scam none the less as the tell tale sign is this wording:

because you have a older version installed.

To view your message click on the link below .....

There is not an older version and neither would Sky ask you to click a link to update or access your emails.

Mark this a spam and keep doing the same should you be sent anymore.
