Ways You Can Identify A Phishing Mail

1 

HOVER TO DISCOVER

Bad guys like to hide malicious links in legitimate-sounding emails. Hover your mouse over the link in question. If the address looks weird or you’re uncertain, don’t click it.

WHEN IN DOUBT CALL IT OUT

If you're unsure about an email or its content, send it as an attachment to "Email Abuse" and delete the original.
3 

LOOK CLOSELY AT THE DETAILS

Legitimate messages seldom have major spelling mistakes or poor grammar. Read email carefully and use caution with suspicious items.

ALARM MAY CAUSE HARM

A common phishing tactic is to play on readers emotions by placing urgent or threatening language in a subject line. Beware of email that appeals to your sense of urgency. Emails urging you to take immediate action are often a red flag. Don't lose your cool... slow down and think before you act.

TRUST BUT VERIFY

Things like email addresses and sender names are easy to fake. If you're not sure about an email's origin, proceed with caution. Think twice before clicking on links or attachments from unverified senders.

BEWARE OF THE SHARE

Legitimate companies don't need your personal information... they already have it. Think twice before sharing personal details online.

SEEING ISN’T BELIEVING

Malicious email often includes convincing logos, language, and legitimate looking email addresses. Be skeptical when it comes to your email. If it looks suspicious, proceed with caution.

WHAT’S THE RUSH?

Emails urging you to take immediate action are often a red flag. Don’t lose your cool… slow down and think before you act.
