If you are worried about malicious links, try this: https://www.browserling.com/
It’s free :D
An alternative is also https://hyperbeam.com/ which allows you to open a virtual browser. 😜
If you’re worried about notifying the sender that you are a real person, it’s probably not great interacting with the links at all because they are linked directly to your email (same with normal unsubscribe links)
Yeah, true, but I also think the spambot doesn’t really care to send 1 or 1,000,000 mails as it’s just a bot.
I mean, they would target those dummies that don’t read links at all than those that are smart enough to click to those links, they would mainly know your browser and location once you click the link to target more specific scam matching your zone or location, but I am not sure if they would stop sending spam if you never click to those links…
