I use free Spotify - I use it mainly for podcasts and although they say there are adverts, when they announce an ad-break, they get straight back into the podcast without the ad.
It’s probably because the ads are geared to people in other countries and would be of no use to someone outside of those countries.
Please do not post links to scams. Esp. if they were sent in a scam email.
If you want to share an email, please remove all links and emails before posting.
Thought I had removed links. Sorry (boy was I surprised about the flag message 
at least now I saw what that looks like for once).
Or do a print screen so the link does not work
Well I was in Bahnhofstrasse Zurich today and a young well dressed woman asked me if I need a cleaner for my apartment. I said no. Then she went on to say that they are evicting her from her apartment and that she needs help. I said go to the Social Department. Just wondering what would she have said if I said yes I need a cleaner for my apartment?
she would have moved in with you.
She was probably backed up by a Rumanian mafia clan.
Neuchâtel police have warned people about this one doing the rounds at the moment.
The attached document does look pretty legit but anyone with half an ounce if intelligence would know that the email was fake, the police would never use an outlook email address.
The police have reiterated that they would never send out this kind of thing by email and nor would they telephone people.
Sorry, the photo is too big to attach.
Another scam supposedly from Swisscom. It basically says that a problem has occured with the last payment and that I should login.
I think the bottom line with all of these scams is that one should never click links in an email. It doesn’t matter whether it appears to be “official” or not. If you’re on a computer, you can hover your mouse over both the email address and the link to see where they direct.
Otherwise, open a new browser tab and go to the actual website and log in to check your account. Apparently even Google search results can return fake websites, because scammers can pay to be at the top of the results. Always take care as to what you’re clicking.
And thanks to everyone for sharing the most recent scams. 
so what was it about? “Such a thing” is too vague.
that’s what I always do, no matter who the email with link is from.
On Android you can touch and hold the link, it should then display it and give you the option to copy it or open the URL.
highly appreciated 
already too dangerous for my liking.
What about links that are posted on this forum? Should we also be suspicious of them?
Naah, you’ll be fine.
All else apart, 99% of these types of links are only dodgy if you enter personal details. That’s the basic modus operandi of most of them, persuade you to enter login and password, and/or card details and CVV code by pretending to be something they’re not.
But the hover or examine of the URL will in any event not try to open it. You could even just copy the whole text and paste it into notepad or something to look at it.
A dose of caution is probably good to have all the time. You can also hover over a link here to see whether it directs to the right place or not. For example, here’s a link to CNN. 
Unusual that a link is better than it appears
Oooh! Looks un-American to me
