UB Login Phish - Do not click 'Email address changed successfully' email 10-23-17

IT Security Alert.

An email supposedly from "UBIT - University at Buffalo" indicates that your University email was recently changed and to log in if you have not recently changed your address.

Red flags: How you can tell it is a fake

 
  1. If you hover over the mail URL you will notice it is not a buffalo.edu web site.
  2. If you hover over any of these other links you will notice none of them are buffalo.edu sites.

I already clicked the links. What should I do?

  • If clicked on the link, but did not enter your password, please check that your computer security or anti virus program is on and up to date.

I did not click on the links. What should I do?

Delete the email.
