    There a scam going on with McAfee renewals?

    Yes for a month or more, very easy to spot, also fake temu adverts.

    IMO not worth blocking, or reporting, just mark as spam to help train
    your filter and move on. Next month it'll be for something else.

    I must get a dozen or more spam emails every day for all kinds of
    things. Gmail seems to be fairly good at filtering them out. Any that
    slip through their net into my inbox I just mark as spam. No point in
    doing anything else.

    I read somewhere that more spam emails get sent out every day than do legitimate emails.

    I have had a Temu account for a couple of years, and they never send me
    any emails, except to comfirm an order or tell me its ready for collection
