Each email message, regardless of the service provider, contains a message header. It also contains a log of the steps it took to reach your inbox. The information begins with the email address to which the message was sent. Additionally, there are details about when the email was sent, the sending server’s IP address, and the time the message was received by the recipient.<\/p>\n

If the IP address resolves to a server from a domain other than your bank’s (for example, realbank.com), it is possible that the email address was spoofed and the message did not originate from your bank.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
