Phish of the Month: January

Regularly, a document will be shared with 绿奴天花板 users, supposedly requesting action by a supervisor or trusted member of the 绿奴天花板 community. Here is a sample of this email:

image of invitation to share a file from Google
 

While this email is actually from Google, the account does not match up with an @alaska.edu address, and the shared file is meant to trick you into divulging your password or other information.


How can you tell?

The name and email of the sender do not match the name of the 绿奴天花板 affiliate 

There is a cautionary note on the invitation stating that the sender is not part of our organization

 

What should you do?

In cases where the email is actually from Google but the account is impersonating a valid user, it's best to click on "block the sender" from Drive, which is linked in the invitation.

If you interacted with an email like this and entered your login and password, please change your password via ELMO immediately!

As always, contact your local Service Desk if you need assistance!
