🛡️ Heads Up-Watch Out for Phishing Emails! 📬
What is Phishing?
Phishing is a cyber threat that commonly uses email to steal account credentials and personal information. In some cases, it can also deploy malware. While email is the most common method, phishing attempts also occur through text messages and phone calls. Cybercriminals are getting sneakier—and college inboxes are prime targets. Don’t let a fake email ruin your day!
🔎 What to look for:
- Weird sender addresses or unexpected messages
- Emails asking for passwords, money, or personal info
- Spelling errors or urgent-sounding subject lines
🚫 What NOT to do:
- Don’t click suspicious links or download random attachments
- Don’t reply or give out sensitive info
- Don’t trust anything that feels "off"
📩 What TO do:
- Forward suspicious emails to phishing@terra.edu
- Ask questions if you're unsure—better safe than sorry!
Let’s keep your info and your inbox safe! 💻
