I'm still trying to find out how they can actually make their email look like it's from Verizon, or Paypal, or Ebay.
I get this all the time.
You think you are getting a legitimate email from Paypal or Ebay, etc, the background, the graphics, I swear it looks legit. But when they ask you to update your information, you know it's phony because Ebay tells you "never reply to an email from Ebay, always sign in to Ebay and look for any messages"
So that's what I do.
That's how I learned about spoofing, phishing and all the other phony emails.
Never heard of the words spoofing, or phishing before.
One learns something every day.
