๐ฉ Thatโs your biggest clue that something isnโt right.
โ
Before you click ๐๐ก๐ฌ link or open an attachment, take a few seconds to ask yourself:
โ
๐น Do I actually have an account with this company?
๐น Was I expecting this email?
๐น Does the senderโs email address match the company?
๐น Is anything misspelled or justโฆ off?
โ
If something feels suspicious, ๐ฑ๐ผ๐ปโ๐ ๐ฐ๐น๐ถ๐ฐ๐ธ ๐ถ๐.

Instead:
โ
Report it as ๐ฃ๐ต๐ถ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ด or ๐ฆ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐บ
โ
Delete it

Phishing is a cyberattack where scammers disguise themselves as a trusted company, coworker, bank, or service to trick you into clicking malicious links, opening infected attachments, or providing sensitive information like passwords, credit card numbers, or banking details.
โ
One click can lead to:
๐ Stolen passwords
๐ฐ Financial fraud
๐ฆ Malware or ransomware infections
๐ Data breaches
โ
The good news? Most phishing attacks can be stopped simply by slowing down and taking a closer look.
