Email scam attempt that I fell for. Face palm…SMH!

Got the following email…

The following alternate email address was added to your AT&T account:

l*****as71@yahoo.com

I never fall for this crap, i’ve warned my mom about this, however I did today…I clicked the link to review security settings

So I called AT&T who said no alternate email address was added
so I looked at the email from address and it was ffm-trans@t-online.de

They didn’t even try to be tricky about it. The link was at https://o11.me/MyKRI. Yeah that looks like a legitimate AT&T address.

I did however change my real AT&T email password from a actual AT&T link, so I hope I’m OK!

Hopefully it was not a sophisticated scam perhaps expecting a MS-Windows link click.

I’m getting old and stupid.

I guess we all can get lazy.
