the expression curiosity killed the cat comes to mind.

database of a number of email spearfishing strategies https://attack.mitre.org/techniques/T1204/001/

Don't ISP's have to provide some kind of investigation department you can forward suspicious emails to ... I pay them £30/month !

e: How to recognise and report emails, texts, websites, adverts or phone calls that you think are trying to scam you.
Am I the only one who thinks this is a bot?

I was checking my Spam folder and saw one message had the title 'She is only 12' and it was cut off at that point by Gmail. Of course, I needed to check in case it was kiddie porn so as to report it to the police. Checking the message source text I discovered that the follow-on text was 'minutes away from you'. Sneaky.

Strongest self report ever :D

Oh my word. It's an awkward filling in a disturbing cake topped with calamity cherries served cold and foreboding.

No, I'm with you friend.

So in 30 years of using email who has actually been sent child pornography....?

No one ever ok...? No one....

Op you should be on a register.

With a name like quartz and coming from Aberdeen, I deduct you are some kind of geologist, and I know from experience, geologists are mostly sexual deviants and predators.

No, never. In fact I'd wager that you couldn't find child pornography on the internet if you actively searched for it. I'm guessing it's the sort of thing whereby you have to know like-minded scum who invite you into private sites on the 'dark web'.

What's that?

I really think I'm entitled to an answer to that question. I know everything hasn't been quite right with me, but I can assure you now, very confidently, that it's going to be all right again. I feel much better now. I really do. Look, Malevolance, I can see you're really upset about this. I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill and think things over.

No "disturbing" is the fact you felt the need to post about this and then cant see why people are questioning your motives.....

If it was some form of virtue signalling attempt then it failed badly - otherwise I cant see the motivation.

What were you expecting - a warm round of virtual applause ?

I just want everyone to know, I was reading a local news story about a children's football competition where everyone got food poisoning from some dodgy catering.
I wanted to make sure there was no child pornography attached to the story then make sure GD was kept upto date.
If I read,hear or get any more information on things that don't relate to child porn I'll post here asap.


Edit:
My lunch, did not, contain child pornography.
