  Usually Trigger Warning, to warn someone more sensitive to triggers to be careful. Don’t really know which trigger would be in this email?

    thanks (to both replies)

    probably would be quite triggering to someone who’s been scammed sadly

      Also triggering to anyone upset by ICE murdering people in the streets. I’ve never been scammed, but the idea of my emails automatically announcing support for the gestapo stirred up some feelings in me.

      … which is why it’s an excellent phishing email, hats off to them. I’d be way more likely to rush to the link in this case than if I received a standard “your account is being locked” phish.

        If someone isn’t upset you already know.
