Phishing emails from paypal
I am getting a number of emails from PayPal, the email looks genuine but when I look into it I know it is from a fraudulent account.
Several people are sending me invoices but when I click on the sender details the same email address comes up and its not PayPal its Alex34atfromexperience.site
Apart from sending it to spam how can I stop this.

@toki2008 Unfortunatley scam/spam email will always be sent, all you can do is mark it as spam then delete it.

If you could come with something that would stop spam being sent you would become very rich because at present there is no way to stop them so all you can do is to use filters and mark them as spam.

If it's the same sending address every time, you could set up a filter to divert these emails to your trash folder. Obviously it won't work if the sender changes their email address, as is quite likely.

Filter them on the word Paypal if you don't use it so they are diverted to your trash folder.
