QVC Spam

Susan345 — Fri, 04 Oct 2024 17:16:21 GMT

In the last few days I have been flooded with spam from QVC-Customer support. Sometimes 2 of the same at the same time all with various different subjects. Have not opened any.

I have been unsubscribed from QVC e-mail for some time. No idea who started this but not happy.

@Susan345 - Without opening the messages, see if you can hover your cursor over the "From" field and check the email address. Since QVC doesn't really refer to their team as "Customer Support," there's a chance you're getting third-party spam that you can block, especially if you're not subscribed to QVC marketing messages. (FWIW, I'm also not subscribed to anything but order updates, and I haven't received any messages from QVC—or claiming to be from QVC—this week.)

@Susan345

Isn't spam awful? I will say AOL catches 90% and they go right to spam....but if anything looks remotely suspicious...I ALWAYS hover to see the sender.

Sometimes the creeps pick up a name of someone I know!

Never had one that said QVC-Customer support....my legit emails say Customer Care QVC

but I will be deligent to make sure I watch for any funky QVC ones.

Thanks for the heads up.

I know that most of them are fake because they are offering me free gifts. Unfortunately by e-mail provider does not offer a blocking feature.
