You Won’t Believe How Google “Subpoenas” Are Actually Just Scammers Messing With You!

Okay, so get this: some geniuses out there are running around pretending to be “Google,” sending these emails like, “Ooo, you’ve been subpoenaed!” Subpoena! Yeah, right. Like the only verdict here is that your inbox just turned into a bad episode of Law & Order.

The emails come from “no-reply@google.com”—because if there’s one thing you can trust, it’s a robot with no one you can reply to. Very convincing. The subject lines? “Security Alert” or “Notice of Subpoena.” The only urgent thing about it is how fast you’ll lose your patience—or your information! 🚨

The email claims Google’s got a judge breathing down their neck, demanding your entire digital life: emails, docs, that search for “can you eat expired hummus,” all of it! The whole thing builds up to their pièce de résistance—a link. “View your case materials,” they say. Big surprise: it takes you to a FAKE Google page so official-looking, you’ll want to pay it taxes. 🧑‍⚖️

But wait, it gets better—they know about this thing called DKIM. Sounds fancy, right? “DomainKeys Identified Mail.” Like it’s another security badge nobody asked for. It’s supposed to keep you safe. But if scammers can get past it, then what’s next, huh? Next thing you know, your neighbor’s dog is running phishing campaigns!

Apparently, scammers now replay actual Google emails, DKIM and all, just to slip past your spam filters like a sneaky raccoon. SPF, DKIM, DMARC? These aren’t rappers, but they still get bypassed more than a toll booth in Jersey. 🙄

Here’s the big finish: Don’t freak out! Use spam filters, 2FA, and maybe just treat every urgent subpoena in your inbox with the suspicion of a guy in a trench coat offering you discounted Rolex watches. Paranoia isn’t pretty, but hey, neither is identity theft.
