Description of the phish / scam

A threat actor is actively asking people for their UB credentials on Reddit so they can supposedly access information via the University libraries.

How you can tell it is a scam

  • Anyone with legitimate need to access materials will have their own credentials.
  • Sharing credentials is against University policy. No one should ever be asking you for your credentials.
