Email turned out to be spam

Tweet

I saw an email in my inbox with the subject line Photographs. The email supposedly came from my husband’s dad. I found that weird as he never emails me. Plus his first name was shortened. It said Alex instead of Aleksandr. I clicked on the email to see what it was about. The body of the email said: I should've forwarded them to you earlier. But I knew those photographs might make you a little nostalgic. A link for me to click followed. After the link there was more text. It said: “You have to write the book that wants to be written. And if the book will be too difficult for grown-ups, then you write it for children.“ – Madeleine L'Engle His dad would never write me something like this. And the link looked weird so I did not click on it. Not sure what would have happened had I accidentally clicked on it but good thing it didn’t happen. I decided to click in the To field to see the actual email address the email had come from as there was no way it came from his dad. Sure enough it was some bogus email address.
