One was for Paypal, one was for a traffic ticket (I haven't driven in France in 20 plus years), and one was telling me that my credit card was being deactivated.
I did not click on any of the links!!!!
When I was working, my company would send out a couple of fake phishing emails a month to all of the employees to see if we would click on it. I did it once and I got a call from IT telling me not to do that. Since then, I don't click on any links in emails. If I am unsure, I call the company and verify that it is legitimate.
Has anyone else gotten any scam emails in French?
Does anyone know what happens if someone clicks on the link?

I'm learning to speak French so I can better understand these poor, underprivileged scammers who are nothing more than digital panhandlers. I really feel sorry for them.
