Do you have any Add-Ons to block PayPal pfishing Mails?

Post by Sobros »

Hello. I use Firefox and my question is: Are there any Adblock Add On Programms which kann block or protect Computer from fake PayPal pfishing mails? Last time I receive too much of such a kind. Some of them are with additional .zip files, another without (just like: proove your account or PayPal payment...)
Thanks for an answaer.

Adblock Plus can not block E-mails or controll them. I think, you have to change your E-mail adress by PayPal. Such pfishing E-mails are known to target old E-mail adresses. If you receive strange PayPal E-mails with any additional files, do not open them!!!

No. Adblocker can not replace an anti-spam / anti-malware / anti-virus programs.
