Common Phishing Red Flags
- Urgency: "Act now!" "Your account will be suspended!"
- Suspicious sender: Misspelled domains or unfamiliar addresses
- Generic greeting: "Dear Customer" instead of your name
- Mismatched links: Hover over links to see if they match the text
- Requests for sensitive info: Passwords, SSN, credit card numbers
- Poor grammar/spelling: Legitimate companies proofread their emails
- Unexpected attachments: Don't open attachments from unknown senders
How to Stay Safe
- When in doubt, go directly to the official website by typing the URL
- Never click links in emails asking you to "verify" your account
- Check the sender's actual email address, not just the display name
- Enable two-factor authentication on all important accounts
- Report phishing attempts to your email provider and the impersonated company
