REF: Mail Draw Statement

Posted in: Phishing

Screenshot of a phishing email marked confidential. Email contains a link to an external website

Why this looks valid:

  • Email states it’s coming from a faculty/staff member.
  • Email body states that the file is confidential and is only accessible via link.

Why this is phishing?

  • Email subject and body are vague to entice an unsuspecting user to click the link.
  • Link available via the button in this email does not lead to a legitimate location.
  • Once link is interacted with it leads to a fake Google login page to capture login credentials.
