Email Phishing Questions
« on: February 24, 2016, 04:05:42 PM »
I got an email today from some guy with an offer for an investment and it seems very suspicious. I have no idea how the sender got my email address and I'd therefore like to report it to gmail as phishing. The only problem is that it comes from a Jewish name (Chaim). Can anyone please tell me how to proceed? I would very much like to discourage further sending of such messages and wouldn't mind reporting it, but I don't want to get another Jew into trouble.
