Convincing phishing email

Posted: Wed 28 Jun 2017, 9:07am.

We've had a number of reports of staff receiving a phishing email that's been designed to look like a genuine Sussex "breaking news" message. The email appears to be targeting Sussex staff and may contain the Sussex logo or a link to the Sussex website, alongside a link to a fraudulent phishing website.

Please see the IT Services security page for details: http://www.sussex.ac.uk/its/help/security/

If you receive an email with a subject "Breaking News" then please take care not to follow any of the links it contains. If you're not sure, please contact the Service Desk.
