If admin@yourcompany.com wrote you to say you were laid off, would you click the link?

I'd personally wait for a pink slip.

Actually, I never pay attention to the address it's from - I'm too busy hitting the delete key after glancing at the subject / body...

Although usually, the spam is in the general account of where I work, not my actual work address. I rarely get spam at my work address, actually. But I barely use it externally.

(Also, our external / internal mail are segregated, so if HR were to lay me off via mail, it would be in a completely different folder than any spam that came in for me. Perhaps a good idea for those targeted?)

No - but I know alot who would.

I might do it, but I'm stupid that way.
