Good for you. But this is a scary looking link for the average internet browser.
- logicallee 9y agoI disagree, because it literally says "secure.verylegit.link". Those are not negative words. If this seemed suspicious to the people you're talking about, nobody would start a letter to them with the words, " Please permit me to make your acquaintance in so informal a manner. This is necessitated by my urgent need to reach a dependable and trust wordy foreign partner. This request may seem strange and unsolicited but I will crave your indulgence and pray that you view it seriously. " (I found this example online.) So, I simply disagree that the example produced looks suspicious. It looks fine. Further, I wouldn't even think twice before clicking it. The example I quoted simply doesn't look suspicious. (Because pdf is a 'safe' filetype.) I don't think it would give the average Internet user pause, either.

- logicallee 9y agoYes, safe. I open it safely in Chrome (I just click, Chrome opens it natively in the same view) and the chance someone is going to burn a PDF zero-day for chrome on a random link I come across is vanishingly small. You can open PDF files in Chrome. Even malicious ones. It's okay.
