I just got an SMS on my personal mobile stating that a delivery attempt had been unsuccessful  because they could not contact me.  Thing is, I don't have any deliveries due.  The message refers me to a website for "fir-line", the URL ending with ".cc"  I had never seen .cc before.  Google reveals it's the COCOS (KEELING) Islands, some Australian territory and that .cc URLs are being marketed because "they can be used in many different ways".  Well, Yah.   

I have no idea what this little endeavor actually is but keep an eye out for .cc URLs.

Its a typical scam that has been around for a while. Watch for similar ones from banks or debt cards or any number if things and never click on the links

There is no protection no matter what phone brand. If you click a link it takes you to the scamming site that mimic whatever company making the claims  they can even scalp your data from your phone by loading a software that straps all your data

Just delete them as you get them, don't open them. They will give up after a while.

 

I only open emails from people and companies I know.

If you click on the link, your Thai immigration status is shared with the Thai revenue department.
