Blacklist the Email Sender If the sender of the phishing email is unknown to you, you should also "blacklist" their email address. By blacklisting the sender any further fishing emails from that sender will be blocked. Note: please do not blacklist phishing emails coming from one of our genuine Clients' email addresses, please make sure you inform the Client their email has been hacked.
Examples of when to use a full email address or *@domainname Example 1 - Using the full email address You have received a suspicious email with a strange attachment from one of our regular clients. Upon checking the sender's email address in Karbon you notice the email does come from the client's usual domain name, but it's not one of the regular client's email addresses. You contact the client and let them know about the suspicious email you have received. After investigating, the client confirms they were hacked and a new email address was created by the hacker for phishing purposes. In this case, you would only block the specific email address. Example 2 - Using the *@domainname You receive a phishing email from an overseas company. Even though other email addresses from the same business may be genuine, you know it would be highly unlikely Evolution Cloud Accounting would have any dealings with this company. In this case, you would block the entire mailbox domain by typing *@domainname |
