You can avoid ANY email scam by simply doing that.
BTW/ thanks for the warning Claire, I'm sure it's still needed for some

Thanks...yes most scams are simple and look like only someone stupid might fall for them but people do (and most are not stupid).
Last years scam was to ask you to sell your domain subject to a valuation and they slipped in thier valuation company with 2 other well know genuine ones ..of course thier bogus one offered the lowest fee to value your domain so many used it .....the scam was simply to extract 40 bucks a shot from people and give them made up valuations..no one was ever gonna buy your domain ......( sounds easy to spot for some but huge amounts of people fell for it ! )
Bottom line is what maybe easy to spot by one may not be spotted by all.
