Yet Another Scam Evri Email
I received another scam email claiming to be from Evri yesterday.
In the mail, the fake Evri claims that my delivery driver, and I quote, 'Oliver, Will Turner' could not locate my address and that my parcel has been redirected to the nearest Evri warehouse.
Think about it - they don't have a physical address, but happen to have my email address. Tell me where this makes sense.
Anyway, with the fake Evri telling me the fake Evri driver has taken the fake parcel to a fake Evri warehouse, I am then expected to click on a link which will, I am sure, send me to a fake Evri page where they expect me to give them my REAL address and REAL payment information.
Here's a snap I took of the email so you can see how it looks like. If you've happened to stumble upon this blog post after typing in the delivery driver name, you know what to do - ignore the email and delete.

Another Annoying Article Courtesy Of The Mirror
Another poorly researched - or, at best: clickbait - article was on the Mirror website yesterday.
The article is about Neighbours and states that Lucinda Cowden - who plays Melanie Pearson - is leaving the soap.
Take a look at the headline. It implies that Cowden is departing after thirty-seven years on screen. It's absolute nonsense.
Cowden joined the series in 1987 and left in 1991. She made a brief return for the programme's twentieth anniversary in 2005 and then returned as a regular in 2021.
The actress was not working on Neighbours for at least thirty years, so it's poor research to look at when Melanie debuted (1987) and conclude she has been in it for all that time.
Lucinda Cowden was gone for over thirty years when you do the calculations. Also factor in the year Neighbours was off-screen (which was during Cowden's second tenure as a regular).
With that little irk aside, I am sorry to see Lucinda Cowden 'axed'. I always like to see the characters from the earlier days of Neighbours. I suppose it's nostalgia more than anything.
