This phish seen this morning at UD may catch you if you’re unaware. It’s a variation of a phish seen in our mailboxes earlier this month.
- Similar “official sounding” boilerplate language about forwarding and maintenance.
- Similar use of a udel.edu URL in the text as a link to a bad non-UD site. (Hover your computer mouse over the link to see where it really will take you.)
Phishing Scam: Note where the link REALLY goes.
If you click the link and enter your UDelNet ID and password, change your UDelNet password immediately by going to the UD Network page. - Similar spoofing of an official-looking UD email address. Remember, UD will never ask you to verify your personal information by clicking a link in an email message. Nor will UD ever ask you to send personal information via email.
- Same bogus paragraph about what the “Primary owner” must do. At UD, we instruct you not to share your email account. “Primary owner” implies “secondary” use of an email account.
