Email phishing increase

Robs55 — Sat, 15 Nov 2025 14:01:25 GMT

I had the migration email which was to start 31/10. Since that date I have had a significant increase in the amount of phishing emails, which I am thinking is due to the new provider Greenbee possibly not providing the same filtering.
Has anyone else noticed the same ?

If the details on your profile are right, you're not in the process of being moved.

SPAM has been mentioned elsewhere on the forums generally, and I've reported a few examples which should help.

This may already have been dealt with, but if you forward to abuse@plus.net, we can take a look at the headers and look to block the IP / address if appropriate.

Just noticed this response.

Thank you, will forward.

It's about 6 emails a day all to the same Plusnet email address. Currently I've adjusted Thunderbird to automatically send them to the delete folder.

I've had multiple daily spam / phishing emails since about the start of November 2025.

I've been forwarding thyem to report@phishing.gov.uk

Yesterday (or was it the day before) I received what seemed to be all the December dated incoming emails again.

I deleted them.
