Dell's been an open book for years.
One piece of spam I've got on a brand new email account was ~1 day after ordering a brand new XPS. It was a fake tracking code email about my dell order with correct details like laptop, account name, price. I contacted dell and only managed to find out my order wasn't even in the post yet. They weren't interested in anything.
And I also never got any more than that specific 1 piece of spam.
- logicallee 8y agoWhat makes you think Dell didn't send it? I get that the tracking code was fake but what else? (Example: direct link to a phishing site.)
- lostgame 8y agoOut of curiosity, how did you/did you confirm it was a fake?
- Already__Taken 8y agoThe tracking number was a zipfile I have to run a program to get. I messaged Dell to confirm who they ship with, who said it's not in the post yet. Once another tracking number came in a week or so it was from dell since it had more branding and did actually contain just a number and did work in the shipping companies website.
