How to stop fake emails received from my domain

Hello,

To help prevent fake emails from being sent using your domain, we recommend implementing the following measures:

1. SPF Record – Add a Sender Policy Framework (SPF) record to your domain’s DNS settings. This will specify which mail servers are authorized to send emails on behalf of your domain.
2. DKIM Record – Enable DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) to digitally sign your emails, ensuring that recipients can verify the authenticity of the sender.
3. DMARC Policy – Configure a Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC) policy. This will instruct receiving mail servers on how to handle emails that fail SPF or DKIM checks.
4. Regular Monitoring – Review DMARC reports and monitor your email traffic to detect any suspicious activity.
5. Secure Your Accounts – Ensure that all email accounts associated with your domain use strong passwords and two-factor authentication.

We recommend contacting your hosting or email service provider for assistance in setting up these records correctly.
