PHISHING
We have noticed a recent spike in fake emails and online “phishing” attacks. Phishing is an attempt to obtain sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details through fraudulent and malicious messages. Our attackers have been using “spoofing”, a method of forging the email to appear to be from another person or company.

Please remember the following, to help protect your personal information:

Do not share your ID or passwords with anyone, including family and friends.
Carefully read any account threats. A communication that contains a threat such as “your account will close immediately” should be treated as suspicious. Do no enter information, or click on any link that seems off.
Who is the email from? Always double check who is sending the email. If a name seems weird, the logo is wrong, or the spelling is off, don’t open the email, or any attachments.
Think before you click. Be suspicious if an email asks you to go to an odd web address, or if the email contains an unusual attachment.
When in doubt, just ask. Please contact The Student Support Service Center if you are unsure if an email is a phishing attempt. The quickest way to contact us is to use the web form to the right.

When your confidential data is compromised, attackers can use your account to send even more phishing messages, as well as steal your information to open credit cards, access additional accounts, or commit other crimes associated with identity theft. It is critical that you protect yourself from these types of attacks. The measures above will help safeguard your private information.
