  1. Okay. Stupid question for anyone who can answer:

    Is there anything I can do about
    #PhishingEmails other than just block them/mark as spam? Like, Thunderbird correctly flags these emails as junk mail, and since this is one of my emails on one of my domains, I can go into my hosting control panel and block the email address and/or domain it comes from... but the last time I notified my hosting provider, they were just like "That looks like phishing! Don't click that!" even though I literally told them I knew that's what it was, and I wanted to let them know because the phisher was attempting to convince me they were my host.

    Like, is it worth plugging these domains into a whois look up and see who the registrar is and report abuse to them or...?

  2. Spent a few hours updating my #IOC collection on my #GitHub repositories. Added a long list of IOCs from #DocuSign #PhishingEmails here: github.com/Geekmaster-General/

    Also added a new section called "Phishing Email IOCs" which you can find here: github.com/Geekmaster-General/

    This covers the infamous "Password Reset", "Microsoft Teams File", "Storage if Full", "Messages on Hold", and "SharePoint Document" phishing emails we all see from time to time.
