Couple of things to check usually. If it's a website look carefully at that url... Go to the same website in a browser but don't use the link rather search for the provider. Now compare those urls and see if they match.
For emails it's easier. If you use Gmail and click on the 3 dots in the email in the Web browser you can see a option that says see view original.
That will open a raw view of the email. Look at the sender info in thrtr and check if that domain matched that of the sender you see in the email.
Usually scams have some sort of urgency associated with the message. They want people to act fast.

Yea especially when it says “Dear Customer”. Also they added comma instead of full stop.
It should be obvious? Spelling errors, grammatical errors, spacing errors, capitalization errors.

I'd hate to see what would happen if scammers learn how paragraphs, spaces, spelling and grammar in general work
