My checking acct was hacked on GOOGLE EM yesterday- person charged a HP laptop to my checking account. Thankfully, my credit union alert phoned me to confirm this purchase and did not distribute the $1275 charge. I phoned them and they filed a fraud report and blocked my card. They advised I contact HP and 'CANCEL" this fraudulent charge. I phoned the number for HP on the email I received confirming my purchase and a second HP email saying my payment was declined. I was forwarded to their FRAUD dept, agent. Who took my name, phone and address. Then advised me that they cancelled the purchase and it had NOT been a completed bank transaction.

I am gettingHUNDREDS of spams daily. I used up the 5000 BLOCKS they allow over a year ago. SICK OF GOOGLE porn, fake US GOVT, and CASINO deposits as well as coming from all over the GLOBE into my email. I do send everone of the fake US GOVT email to Fraud report website I do report SPAM and also PHISHING on each one of these hundreds daily...soooooo tired of GOOGLE SHITMAIL! Please tell me safest email to use.

Also, 2nd request. Can you help me understand WHY even though I DO have my Firefox settings to save open tabs when I close or shut down, as well as to OPEN FIREFOX whenever I restart my computer...neither are working!

ALSO, 3rd request I have gmail set for email receivt onFirefox. and there are two areas to conduct a search FIREFOX in the center of the screen and of course the top line access to enter a search query...whenever I type in the FIREFOX Box to conduct a search it automatically goes to the upper entry box.

I am 79, a former educator, and have vg mental health still, YET, I HATE MORE AND MORE USING the computer and the cellphone, as there seems daily to be something that does not work and going to settings and reading each area to figure out what is wrong or why this happened is too difficult to read, to do, to recall withoug having to PRINT OUT EACH DIRECTION.

Yes, perhaps, I too have become a dinosaur and my mind is NOT calibrated to the CONSTANT UPDATES and changes demanded using new computer and phone technologies.

I thank GOD we do have people LIKE YOU TECHIES to try to help us GET IT RIGHT.

I'll offer a slightly different answer to the above, in terms of most of email abuse comes from actually voluntarily signing up for random stuff and then these providers leak data, get compromised, or just blatantly sell or repurpose their email databases (usually anything "free" is compensated with one's privacy or data, being of value) — to be able to register to random services and not actually uncover the real email address, see Activate Firefox Relay - Mask your email address — something that might be of interest to you.

In terms of "safest mail in Firefox" I don't usually make any particular recommendations, however in case you're not interested in accessing a mailbox from different devices, using typical old protocols, and plan to only access the service in a browser, Switzerland–based Proton Mail are built around being extremely secure, esp. not using the typical email technology during transport, if that's an angle that might sound interesting in your search for new provider.
