Phishing Indicators Explained

1. diana.prince@linkedincdn.com

This email address is not a real email account and is not coming from a Linked
In email address. Often cybercriminals will mimic a legitimate email address but
with a different email domain. Even if the email address is from a
"@andrew.cmu.edu" account and is in the directory, it could still be a phishing
message coming from a spoofed email address or compromised account. Report all
suspicious messages to the Information Security Office at iso-ir@andrew.cmu.edu.

2. Dear Student,
 

Phishing messages often use generic greetings or introductions.   

3. "this is a can't miss opportunity!" 
 

Common phishing email messages will prompt you to take action by creating a
sense of urgency.  
 

4. "Click Here to Apply Now!"
 

Common phishing email messages will prompt you to take action such as clicking a
link in order to verify an account, change a password, or verify
information. When hovering the mouse cursor over the link, the true URL reveals
that the link directs users to a phony website:
"https://wwwciscofakejobopportunities.linkedincdn.com/".  Webpages requiring any
type of logging in/authentication to your Andrew account should begin with
"https://login.cmu.edu/". 


Remember to report all suspicious email messages with Phish Alarm or to
iso-ir@andrew.cmu.edu
