Watch out for Spam and Scam!

A spammer can hijack the name of someone that you recognize.

  • Before opening it, hover over the name with your mouse to see if the sender’s actual email address is legitimate.
  • If it’s a phishing expedition, the email will not be theirs and will often be noticeably odd looking.
  • Look at the subject line carefully too.
  • Beware if something sounds too good to be true.
  • Watch for spelling and grammar errors.
  • Don’t open links unless you trust the source.
  • Don’t forward spam emails to anyone else to “check them out.”
