    A girl In had a crush on sent me the AlbinoBlackSheep “you are an idiot” site that caused a bunch of pop ups. Then she kept sending me links and funny videos and I got all indignant and annoyed because I thought all AlbinoBlackSheep links would be the “you are an idiot” thing.

    Upon further review 20 years later she may have been flirting with me.

    Anyway that’s why I clicked the scam phishing link, boss.

        Between 2g1c, goatse, and lemon party, I learned to always triple check every link I even think of clicking on.

      But are entirely defeated if you make a rule in outlooks saying trash any email that contains knowb4 in the header.

      Not only do you pass all phishing tests, but you also don’t get spammed by them when renewal comes around.

      Phishme is the same. Add a rull saying trash as my email containing phishme.com in the header.

        The emails aren’t from KnowBe4. They are from your HR or CEO or IT department. The links themselves are obvious on the hover though.

          You seem to miss where I said header not from field.

          The emails originate from knowb4 or phishme servers and customers whitelist those servers from anti spam/phishing/url inspection to minimise the false positives.

          The knowb4 and phishme have their names in as part of the email ehlo exchange and are written into the header for tracking.

            I’m not seeing the header in Microsoft Outlook. At least the web version. I would love to filter these.

              Its an ass to get to in desktop outlook

              Double click the email to open the email into a new window, in the tags panel of the ribbon there is a little arrow pointing to the bottom right, click it and a new box opens. the bottom of that box contains the headers and transaction details of the specific email.

    My least favorite thing about the Lemmy community is that people hide the URLs.

    Yeah, you can hover on a computer, yeah, you can change the real URL to something else, however

    No bad stop :( You’re supposed to be old people, act like you grew up when people were scared of random poisoned links

      Some clients show link previews. I use voyager and get previews for all the links at the end of each comment with URL and link text shown. That’s especially useful when people add links to a single letter which would be hard to hit otherwise

        You mean Safari right?

        Because I haven’t seen this feature elsewhere, not mobile firefox nor chrome.

          Oh dang really? My only other experience besides Safari is an old Samsung phone that could detect your finger hovering over the screen and preview the link. That was a neat feature.

            My bad, I haven’t used a Samsung phone as of yet.

            Doesn’t Samsung have their own browser?

            Are there any others?

          It works for me on mobile Firefox (version 128.0.3).

          I was going to attach a screenshot, but that doesn’t seem to be working.

    No, I still click random links to this day.

      Ironically, link previews can help avoid Rick rolls but can hurt security because the link needs to be looked at to generate the preview. If it exploits some flaw (rather than being a phishing thing) or just wants to track if the link has been loaded or grab the IP, then you don’t even get to choose to not click it to avoid that.

      Eh, you just have to adapt. Rickrolls hidden in valid seeming content, redirects from innocuous looking links, and just link shorteners can all obfusicate the actual content.

      Good thinking. But now I’m afraid that I just memorized something that I don’t need to know. Also, the Dairy Queen uses W4 instead of WD40.

    What is the worst could happen if I click on a random link on a brand new computer?

    Edit: This should have a more or less concrete answer right? Maybe there is a competition with this idea?
