The most common signs of phishing scams include:

  1. They seem too good to be true.
  2. They require your personal information.
  3. They create a sense of urgency.
  4. They include attachments or links that you need to open.

While phishing emails can sometimes have poor grammar and spelling, it's not a definitive sign, as some may appear well-written. Similarly, they can come from known or familiar senders, as attackers may spoof email addresses to mislead recipients.
