Poisoned “unsubscribe” link? Ohhh that’s evil

There is a worry from cyber security teams about unsubscribe buttons on emails. Linking to a dead site was probably the best thing they can do. Phishing a real issue. I have been auto junking messages like this but unsubscrive would be better if we could trust it and it actually stoped everything.

I’ve told users to junk everything, it’s not worth getting struck with a clever unsubscribe link. I think it would be a good cybersecurity test email to see how many people click it, I’d wager it’s more effective than some of the piss poor phishing attempts we get, and we’re pretty heavily targeted.
