How to Deal with a Scam
If you get a scam email, don’t just delete it, move it to your spam, if not already there, then forward it to….nfibphishing@cityof-london.pnn.police.uk then delete it.
If it is from a company, also forward it to that company using the email addresses below…. to help your fellow man! Most will reply with thanks.
If you think you have been compromised a trick to use is log in to the website address you usually use, for say your bank but input a false password. If the site is dodgy it will accept it! Then stay clear and worry!
I really don’t understand why they don’t all use ‘spoof’!

Computer Help Needed
I need some kind person out there to show me how to transfer my email contacts, from my BT internet account to my Gmail account.
I have tried but to no avail! There are so many I can’t imagine trying to do this manually and feel there must be a way to transfer all
my contacts in one go. I live in the Canillas de Albaida/Competa area. Thank you.
