Beware Dropbox phishing emails

Below is “a standard phishing attempt, and I might have been fooled, if not for the fact that the sender is someone I hardly know, who I may have exchanged two emails with many years ago,” Kirk McElhearn reports for Kirksville.

“If you don’t already know this, you can check the URL behind the Verify your email button by hovering your cursor over it, if you’re on a Mac,” McElhearn reports.

“If you’re on an iOS device, tap and hold the button, and you’ll see the URL in a dialog,” McElhearn reports. “You’ll note, in both cases, that it’s not a dropbox.com URL.”
