What are maliciu os emails?

A malicious email is an email that scams you out of something, or downloads viruses into your computer. "Your son is visiting Canada and has been arrested. Please send a $10,000 bail." "Double your money instantly! Send $5,000 and we'll send you $10,000!" "I know where you live. Where you work. Who you are. I am a paid assassin coming to kill you. If you tell anyone, I will kill your children, then you. Send me $10,000 and I won't." "Click this link for a no-fail way to ______!" These are some examples of malicious emails. Oftentimes they come from foreign countries. If you get one of these, don't delete it, don't reply, and tell the authorities. The last example is a malicious link that will download a virus into your computer. Some have tracking cookies that see what sites you log into and what your log-in info is or even where you live.
