Phishing Alert! Subject: "Hello"

3/5/2018 9:30 AM: A new phishing scam is making the rounds this morning. This one has the subject "Hello" and does not contain any hyperlinks. It's an example of a fake employment scam that we have already seen this year. At least two @wwu.edu accounts were compromised and used to circulate this message. Those accounts have been secured. Because these compromised accounts are internal, they were able to send copies of this message to groups that outside email addresses normally can't send to. You may have received this multiple times if you are a member of multiple groups that were targeted. Visit our Security page to see an example of this message, and to also read about how you can recognize common phishing techniques. To learn how to recognize fake employment scams, visit the Student Employment Center's Scam Alert page.
