it would be easier to give you a suggestion if you could calm down for half a second and not type in broken english. you said you cancelled this email but somehow you're checking the inbox? someone sending you a fake email about a package isn't necessarily a "hack" incident unless i'm overlooking something here.

You made the safe play with what info you had. They likely obtained that address from the contact list of someone else they successfully phished. In the future it's always good to let the folks here know so they can also be on the lookout, but you probably don't need to close your account.
 
Its common to have your info sold through any number of avenues. Expect plenty of these attempts andd calls/txt messages with "real tracking numbers" if you stay in this game. Not a reason to freak, sorry to say but its partof the deal. Rule of thumb always double check your sender , Dont touch a link ever. Shutting down your email all good and all but it will happen again. Be diligent and just ignore it. If its not from my vendor i dont even touch it, I have 0 reason to and i understand i use proton strictly for one thing. Any otheer emails i get are scammers/spammers/soliciters/advertisements.

  16. D @ drdso: It's scary now fr. I'm guessing we're gonna see a lot of exit scammers for former "reputable" veteran vendors. These tariffs/supply chain issues are causing them not to receive product due to seizure/denial. At a certain point they gotta get there money somewhere. Just be careful who you buy from y'all
  17. T @ timyboy: How ya'll doin
  18. D @ dichlorodavid: Ah thanks for the clarity on the strike. I wasnt aware that this is cont'd from the 2024 strike. Hope they reach terms this time (quickly!)
