What is it?
Phishing is a type of social engineering scam in which cybercriminals send an email, text message, phone call, or other message that appears to come from a legit source but is intended to gain access to personal information such as passwords, login credentials, banking details, and credit cards.
LITS is here to protect you from phishing scams. If you receive a message that seems suspicious, follow our instructions to report phishing to the Technology Help Desk for investigation and response. Even if the message seems obviously phishy to you, reporting it to LITS helps protect the MHC community.
Please also keep an eye on the Phish Bowl to view phishing messages that have targeted the MHC community.
