Real Emails and Scams: How do You Tell the Difference?

Posted on October 1, 2018 by Rob Ryan

We’ve all encountered these emails—official-looking messages that say “Click here to reactivate your account,” or “Click here to confirm your identity,” etc–emails that are really just scam attempts.

Some of them are quite tricky! They might appear to come from someone you know, or look like an official notice, nudging you to act with warnings about bank balances or email quotas.

Be careful.  Be wary.  And be aware of certain cues.

Also know this: UVM IT staff will NEVER ask for your passwords.
