I was scammed yesterday by an email claiming to be McFee having charged $399.99 to my bank account for auto-renewal of McAfee Anti-Virus and Firewall Protection. There are obvious signs it is a fake email. Notice the email address of the sender and the misspelled word Inwoice. They give a phone number to call to reverse the charge. Actually, you can check your account and see there was no charge, and you can also check your McAfee subscription end date.
We are sorry to hear this incident. Please ensure you don't click any links, images on the spam e-mails. If you're not familiar with the sender, do not open, download, or execute any files or email attachments. Ensure you delete that spam e-mail and also if you feel that you have been scammed or any other issues related to this, please contact our support number 866-622-3911.

Welcome to Email Defense! WARNING: Do not use the SpamAssassin junk filter and the Advanced Spam Quarantine & Virus Filter at the same time. You will need to disable one if you intend to use the other.Note: If you would like Domain Level Access for your Email Defense system, please open a ticket through your Client Area or send an email to brand and a representative will set this up for you within 24 hours.Log searchWith the help of Log search it is possible to view the log of received, blocked or temporarily rejected emails. You can search the log for the incoming email based on such criteria as subject, sender and recipient of the email, sender/hostname, destination IP and others.Once the necessary options are inserted, click on Start search to get the logs.NOTE: by default the connections logged are accessible for the last 28 days.You will get the list of the logs for the specific incoming emails. It is possible to Check delivery status and Error details of the email using the drop down box on specific email:
If the email is Rejected or Temporarily rejected, you will see the corresponding status and reason under column called Classification. Email with the status Accepted has not necessarily been delivered, it means the email has been accepted for delivery only. In case delivery fails, it will be retried automatically. But when the destination server rejects the incoming email, the sender will get a bounce back email:
Also, it is possible to check the reason for the blocked email, simply look for Evidence line in the raw header and then compare it with logs from classification page. At the top of the raw headers page you can find the option Download as .eml that allows you to download that specific spam email in .eml format so that you can afterwards report it as spam and train the spamfilter.NOTE: unlike the other spam protection systems, SpamExperts stores all mail logs and spam emails on its own server. Thus, at the moment the only way to check incoming spam emails of your email account is to access SpamExperts account itself. Incoming delivery queueHere you can find the list of incoming emails that cannot be temporarily delivered to the server. The emails queued can be filtered by the following criteria: sender, recipient, size, time, message ID etc.:
Also it is possible to run Telnet test by clicking on corresponding button next to your destination route. By performing telnet test you can verify if the recipient's email address exists on the destination mail server specified in chosen route. The following dialog box will appear, here you need to enter the sender and recipient email address:
Email size restrictionBy default the system uses the email size set by destination mail server, however in this section you can specify the maximum email size limits for incoming mail to be accepted by filtering system. After that you can choose the action should be taken for the oversized emails: either to be placed in quarantine or to be rejected: 4.4 WHITELIST/BLACKLISTThis menu allows you either to whitelist or blacklist sender's email address or a full domain. All spamfiltering checks are disabled both for whitelisted and blacklisted senders. Emails sent from the whitelisted senders will be surely delivered to Inbox folder of your email account, while incoming emails from senders listed on the blacklist will be automatically rejected. Note, that such messages will not be quarantined, but rejected with a 5xx SMTP error code, so legitimate sending SMTP servers will generate a bounce message to the sender. In order to whitelsit/blacklist the desired email account, simply add it to Email Address/Domain field and click Save: If you wish to whitelsit/blacklist all the email accounts associated with some domain name, feel free to specify this domain in Email Address/Domain field: 4.5 WEBINTERFACE USERS
Once your account is transferred to the new server you need to make sure that email route settings are updated as well, otherwise SpamExperts will filter the emails and forward them to the old destination mail server indicated in email route, where account is no longer active. As a result, the sender will get a bounce back message that a sent email has not been delivered.
Maybe that is the culprit??? Here is the link that support sent me with the name of the relay server as well as where it explicitly states you do not need to provide any credentials. The emails ARE going through... just delayed. To be honest, I'm pretty new to asp.net and I'm not exactly sure what credentials I would need to pass it??? I'm sure I could step my way through it if I were pointed in the right direction however. Any thoughts? On a side note, what type of hosting plan do you have with them? Dedicated or shared? I have the middle plan... deluxe if i remember right.Thanks in advance...
