Did you know over 90% of cyberattacks start with an email? Let’s make sure your inbox doesn’t become a hacker’s playground. Phishing emails are messages that try and trick you into clicking a link or sharing sensitive information like passwords. They often look real – maybe from your bank, a colleague, or even a service that you use every day
Phishing emails are getting more frequent and harder to spot. We want you to keep safe from costly scams so we have put together some points to look out for. Stay safe!
Visual red flags: Watch out for urgent language like Act Now! Or Your account will be locked. These are designed to make you panic and bypass your better judgement
Sender Verification: Check the sender’s address carefully. Phishing emails often use addresses that don’t quite match the official company domain.
Link Check: If the link destination doesn't match the text, don't click. Always hover before you click to see the actual URL.
Actionable Advice: If an email looks suspicious, don’t click it! Report it to your IT team immediately or verify the request with the sender through a different channel.
