Alert: Active Phishing Scams – Job Opportunity for Students

最近几周，信息安全小组发现了一个针对我们学生社区的网络钓鱼骗局。

这些邮件来自多个Gmail账户，以及其他机构的账户和被入侵的大学账户。 攻击者还欺骗了我们的@montclair.edu域名，使消息看起来是合法的。 The attacker imitates a Montclair State University faculty/staff member each time asking to communicate further via a personal email address or text message in order to hide their tracks.

Example of this phishing email:

Please be on the lookout for any emails that reflect this description. In the event you are unsure if something is legitimate, you should always contact the department directly before proceeding. When doing so, be sure to use the information found on our Montclair State University website, do not use any information provided in an email. 

If you or anyone you know has fallen for this scam or similar, please change your password via the NetID Account Management Center immediately and discontinue any communication with this attacker. If you have provided any personal information or money, please contact the University Police for further assistance. 

Should you receive an email similar to this and have not interacted with the attacker, please report the phishing attempt via Gmail by viewing the message and clicking the three(3) vertical dots, and clicking “Report phishing”.
