Re:
Jox, I can't figure out why you even read these emails. They just need deleted. If your computer should freeze up, it needs to be taken to a repair place to get rid of any malware you have not gotten rid of.
If you haven't already, get paid Malwarebytes. They block people who try to take over your computer.

Re: Threatening Emails
My email provider catches and quarantines them. They send me an email to alert me so that I can release any valid emails that got accidentally caught up. When I read these emails, the images are blocked.

Re:
I would never open those. I would also change email providers so that you have a spam filter and don't have to bother with them or getting notices about them.

Re: Threatening Emails
It's a very small county, with very little options.

Re:
I love gmail. It dumps spam into a spam folder and any other mail that is repetitive, and you don't want, can also be routed to the spam folder. You never have to look at it.

Re: Threatening Emails
I have gmail. I have hotmail. I have MSN. I have Yahoo. But I use my local email for shopping and personal stuff. The quarantine isn't on my computer, it's online. I have to log in to check the emails sent there. My banking emails get sent there, and I have to log in to release them. None of the quarantined emails go into my inbox or spam/junk folder. I never have to see them if I don't want. It's just that I have to release emails that are legit so that they will download into my inbox.

Don't look at the junk. Only open what you know. It will uncomplicate your life.

Re: Threatening Emails
I got another one of those blackmailing emails. Only they goofed up. It didn't have my email listed on the "From" section. (And the email 'looked' blank.) The email on the "From" section was: gchid(at)kte(.)net

Re: Threatening Emails
It's been a while since I've seen a blackmail email.

Re: Threatening Emails
I didn't get them for a long time, but I've been getting them a lot the last few weeks.
