I no longer do indepth security inspections. Now this is more of a hobby I do in my spare time.

Tracing email headers when you don't know what the text in the header means.

You copy paste it in this site and it tells you the real sending IP:

whatismyipaddress.com/trace-email

I traced 2 hacked email accounts sending spam from Poland and from another country when the email address owners were in North America.

The only way to protect yourself is to arm yourself with knowledge. When you relax and expect others to protect you, they usually drop the ball. So this is why I do what I do.
