Clicked a Phishing Link in Firefox on Ubuntu Mate 20.04
by FuzzyHat from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5AAQH)
Hi All,
I accidentally clicked a link in a phishing email. I meant to confirm signup on a legitimate web site, checked SPAM, thought I had the right email and clicked a phishing link by mistake.
What do I need to do now. Reload the whole OS?
I use NoScript in Firefox and Lastpass for passwords. The email was in the SPAM box of my fastmail.com account, which I was viewing in the browser, not an email client.
Thanks,
Bob
