UB Login Phish - Do not click 'Dear Student Please check your mail inbox we sent to you an a importent massage' email

IT Security Alert.

An email supposedly from "admin@buffalo.edu" asks you to log in for an important message.

Red flags: How you can tell it is a fake

 
  1. The greeting is generic and not sent to a particular individual.
  2. The URL is not a buffalo.edu web site.

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?
