Original Phishing Message

Note: If you received this message, please delete it as it is NOT legitimate. Do not click any links.

Tips for Detection

  • Notice the Caution banner added to the message. This banner is added on messages that may match previous phishing attempts.
  • The sender email address is not from an @pugetsound.edu address.
  • Notice the time mismatch between when the email was sent (12:23pm) and the alleged time the voicemail was received (2:23pm). Since notification emails such as these are generally automated, the timestamps would usually match.
  • The link would have taken you to a fake Outlook login page. Do not enter your Puget Sound credentials on sites you do not recognize or on any forms.
  • If you are unsure what legitimate voicemail notification emails look like for your campus phone, please contact the Service Desk for a detailed description.
