Have you noticed any suspicious emails in your inbox lately? You’re not alone.

Every day, cyber criminals send 3 billion emails designed to look like they’re from companies or people you know – just like this one.

 

Don’t take the bait! To spot a phishing email, watch out for these 7 red flags:

  • Unfamiliar or generic greetings
  • Inconsistent or unusual sender information
  • Spelling and grammar mistakes
  • Links that don’t match legitimate URLs
  • Suspicious attachments
  • Alarming content demanding urgent action
  • Requests for login credentials, payment information, or sensitive data

If you see something, say something.
