It’s really intense and they are getting better.

I almost fell for spam… Supposedly from Host Europe, the host we use for most of our customers.

It looked legit, it read like this usual emails about server upgrades and possible down times.

But then “Please click on this link and enter your credentials bla bla” at the end of the mail. I didn’t check the sender’s email address before reading the mail. It’s also usually hidden and you have to hover the sender’s name, in order to pop-up the real email-address.

A few days later the company sent newsletters warning customers.

They are getting more targeted, tailored to look like the kind of mail people are used to engage with.

We’ll soon have AI Agents do all our stuff, maybe even buying things, paying bills or similar.

AI Spam Agents should make things interesting.
