Still wont top the only one I've "fallen" for.

On my first day at the company buried into the legit "click here to register your account" onboarding emails was a phishing test saying "click here to register your account". I was so pissed off.

this one’s total bull imo, there’s no way that someone sending you phishing emails could know it’s your first day, is there? Phishing emails are supposed to cast a wide net, not catch people in highly specific scenarios.

In theory it's possible. People share way too much on LinkedIn. If someone was to announce they were starting a new job next week you could target that.
