Cybersecurity Awareness
Spot a Phishing Email
Phishing emails pretend to be someone you trust so you'll click a link, open a file or hand over your password. Most stolen accounts start this way. Look for these six signs.
1 Pressure to act now
“Your account will be closed in 24 hours.” Real college offices rarely threaten or rush you.
2 A sender that doesn't match
Check the full address, not just the name. College mail comes from @louisburg.edu, not look-alikes such as louisburg-edu-support.com.
3 A request for your password or a code
IT will never ask for your password, PIN or a 2-step code by email, text or phone.
4 Links that go somewhere else
On a computer, hover over a link to see the real address before you click. On a phone, press and hold.
5 Unexpected attachments
Invoices, “shared documents” or voicemail files you weren't expecting. Don't open them.
6 Too good to be true
Remote jobs that pay big for little work, gift-card requests, free money or prizes. These target college students often.
What to Do
Not sure? Ask first.
Don't click, reply or open attachments. Forward the email to lcit@louisburg.edu and ask. We'd rather check a hundred safe emails than miss one bad one.
Report it in Gmail
Open the email, click the ⋮ menu next to Reply, choose Report phishing, then delete it.
Already clicked?
Change your password right away, then email lcit@louisburg.edu or visit the IT office. Acting fast stops most of the damage.
Still need a hand?
Tell us what you were doing, any error message, and the room or computer. Students in the residence halls can also ask a Residence Life staff member to contact IT.
