Anatomy of a fake Facebook email

Today one of my email accounts received a Facebook notification, only I knew straight away that it was a fake. �This post shows you what the email looked like and the warning signs that this wasn�t a valid notification. �More likely, it was an attempt to steal my facebook details & hack into my account, after I had clicked on the links & willingly entered in my real facebook username and password for them.

I�m not going to risk my laptop by even trying to click on those links to see where they�d take me, I�m just deleting that email now I�ve captured the details for you.

If you are ever slightly suspicious of a facebook notification email, log in to facebook�s website or app yourself and check your notifications inside your account � don�t click on any links inside emails!
