UPEI email accounts being targeted
Posting Date(s)
UPEI email accounts continue to be targeted by a number of phishing and spoofing email scams (the most recent example claims to be from the ITSS Helpdesk). UPEI’s IT Systems and Services department encourages students, faculty, and staff to “protect while you connect":
- treat all links in emails as suspicious, even the ones in this message
- choose strong passwords and change them frequently, and
- use only protected wireless networks.
Read the UPEI article for more cyber safety tips. If you have questions or concerns, contact the ITSS Help Desk at 902-566-0465 or helpdesk@upei.ca.
