Suspicious emails

Murrell — Mon, 06 Jan 2025 13:52:38 GMT

Hi,

Have been getting regular mail from senders all ending .buzz. They're all different in content, block them all, but they keep coming.

Tried to forward to phishing@talktalk.co.uk, but these are all returned unsent.

Any help or advice would be gratefuly received, Thanks.

I have noticed that recently I am unable to report scam Emails to the National Cyber Security Centre because they are rejected by the TalkTalk server. I am wondering what has changed. Have the scammers found a way around or are TalkTalk deliberately not allowing them to be forwarded. I would be pleased if anyone has an answer.

I get the same reporting to the ncsc.gov.uk and I dont know who to ask for a solution.

Apparently, forwarding from a TalkTalk domains email address, has already been suspended/banned.

I.E. don't use forward.

Creating a NEW email, attaching the email that you want to forward, and sending, will achieve the same thing.

@Murrell

I just sent a new email with an attached spam email to phishing@talktalk.co.uk, and it accepted it.

I also got a kind reply from no-reply@talktalk.co.uk, thanking me for sending it.

Try doing it via your browser, via webmail.

Thanks Bill.

I've deleted all the ones I've received to date, but I'll try that method when the next ones inevitably come.

Appreciate your replies.

A couple more today. Sent to phishing@talktalk.co.uk in the method you suggested, and got a reply, so all seems good.

Many thanks for your kind advice.
