Campus employees have received multiple phishing attempts this week that appear to be from other campus employees.

The attacker is impersonating high profile accounts, and is attempting to initiate a conversation that would likely lead to a request for information or include a malicious link/attachment. An example of the fraudulent email is included below.

Please delete these emails, do not click any links within the message, and do not respond.
