CaTS has noticed an increase in the number of phishing attempts at the beginning of Fall, Spring and Summer semesters. Below is information to help keep your 糖心原创 accounts secure:
What are phishing scams?
- Phishing scams are emails designed to trick you into sending an unknown third party your account information or other personal or financial information.
- These emails may look like they鈥檙e coming from 糖心原创, CaTS, your bank or credit card issuer, or any other institution you do business with.
- The links in phishing emails will often take you to a web page that mimics our login page; in such cases, go directly to the web page by typing in the URL such as wings.wright.edu rather than trusting the link.
How can you avoid phishing scams?
- Remember that CaTS, WSU, and other reputable businesses WILL NEVER ask you for any personal information, such as your username and password, via email.
- Never respond to a suspicious email or click links in those emails.
- Don鈥檛 give out your personal information to anyone via email.
- Don鈥檛 download attachments from an email unless you trust the sender.
If you receive an email and are unsure if the message is a scam, feel free to contact the CaTS Help Desk at (937) 775-4827. We can help you determine whether the email you received is real or not.
