    That’s actually really clever. Triggering an anger response with an urgency to act will reduce the victim’s critical thinking and make the phishing attack more likely to succeed.

    This is pretty good. The spelling and grammar are fine, and to be honest, the concept is sadly believable given how corporations have bowed down to Trump and MAGA.

      Also infuriating, so you’re going to be pissed off and more likely to click the link without thinking.

      The spelling & grammar mistakes are normally on purpose to weed out the educated that will waste time but not fall for the final step. This is much cleverer.

    This is a really good phishing trap. Looks genuine and good grammar and punctuation…I would fall for it.

      I think I might as well, and I’ve taught corporate information security classes.

    No matter how tempted you may be, never click links in emails. You can go to your own settings without using that link in the email.

      Are you saying normal people wouldn’t want to opt out of having “I support ICE” on all of their emails?

      This email is targeting people that are angry at ICE. The people that support ICE presumably wouldn’t click the button to opt out.

      It’s a phishing email, the goal is just for the recipient to click on the harmful link, so this tactic could very well work.
