Not bad...
Not bad! You were able to pick out a few of the phishing emails.
HINT: Phishing emails are improving every day. They will often imitate well-known companies to further convince you of their legitimacy (i.e. grocery stores, big-name banks, retailers, etc.). No matter who it appears to be coming from, avoid clicking on links or downloading attachments within the email to avoid installing malware or being redirected to a phishing site meant to steal your personal information.
