Here are five ways to detect a fake email address:

Examine the Email Address Domain

Examine the Sender's Display Name

Look for Misspelled Words and Urgent-Sounding Messages

Hover Over Any Links and Attachments

Verify the Sender's Information by Contacting Them Directly

If you receive email SPAM that ends up in your inbox don't just delete it, mark it as SPAM, with a bit of luck your email provider takes note of this and acts accordingly. Gmail will send any mail that you marked as SPAM to your junk folder automatically, most email apps will do this as well, it all helps!
