Ok so here is the story

I got an email that was directly sent to my span folder in Gmail. This email had a link in it. . .

Now I know that you should not follow such links but my curiosity got the better of me.

What I did was, I sued Kaspersky's web safe run and ran the link inside there. it used somewhat of my network activity but the page didnt load. So I closed it and the activity stopped.

Should I be worried of what I have done or should I be save? I am running a full scan as we speak lol.

Another thing that was weird is the email was addressed to 8 people and 2 of those where both of my email addresses! Im kinda suspicious where they got it. .
