UBIT SECURITY ALERT, 3/25/2017

UB Login Phish - Do not click 'Notice of Account Termination' email

IT Security Alert.

An email supposedly from Buffalo University Support Team claims that a request was put through to terminate your email account.

Red flags: How you can tell it is a fake

  1. Hovering over the URL indicates that the URL is not a buffalo.edu web site.
  2. UB is the University at Buffalo, and is not referred to as Buffalo University.

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?
