Beware of "BOOTS Gift Card" Spam Emails

Posted: Oct 6, 2018 at 8:33 AM by an anonymous user from or near: Almondsbury, England, United Kingdom

I have started to report emails to your listed address as of now, I get a massive amount of emails purporting to be from Asda,mosrrisons,lidl,aldi, amazon.etc.etc

All domains are hosted by namesilo.com their support initially asked for details , then when I did give them all of the details I get anywhere between 5- 20 emails per day, finally they dismissed them as being "spoofed " and not from them; funny when it is hosted by them down to their own name servers for routing of the emails .

I am sure after I reported each and every email to abuse reporting email address I keep getting even more.

Any advice on how to escalate this hosting provider to ICANN and other would be most welcome?
thanks

It would help if you showed the address these e mails come from. I have received a couple from boots@email.boots.com that sound like similar fraudulent e mails. Can you confirm that this isn't a genuine Boots email address please?

I received an email from "Boots" this morning. It claimed "Congratulations with your gift card, today only. 500 Euros Gift Card. Let us treat you."

I'm so glad I checked online first. I was tempted to "Claim"
