Stay Sharp: Visit the Phish Market and Stay Ahead of Scammers

Phishing scams are more sophisticated than ever, and they target universities just as much as businesses. Cybercriminals use deceptive emails, fake login pages, and social engineering tactics to trick students, faculty, and staff, into revealing sensitive information. That’s why our Phish Market is here—to help you recognize and report phishing attempts before they cause harm.

What is the Phish Market?

The Phish Market is our university’s dedicated resource for tracking real phishing attempts that have targeted our community. It provides examples of phishing emails, highlights common tactics scammers use, and offers guidance on how to spot and report suspicious messages. By visiting the  Phish Market, you’ll see firsthand the evolving tricks attackers use and learn how to protect yourself.

Why Should You Visit the Phish Market?

  • Stay Informed: Phishing tactics are always changing. The Phish Market keeps you updated on the latest threats specific to our university.
  • Learn to Spot Red Flags: By seeing real examples, you’ll develop a sharper eye for phishing attempts, making you less likely to fall for them.
  • Protect University Data: A single compromised account can put university systems and sensitive information at risk. Awareness helps prevent breaches.
  • Report Suspicious Emails: The Phish Market makes it easy to report potential scams so our cybersecurity team can investigate and take action.

Phishing Prevention is a Shared Responsibility. Cybersecurity isn’t just an IT issue—it’s a community effort. Every Owl plays a role in keeping our university safe from cyber threats. A little awareness goes a long way in preventing data breaches, financial loss, and identity theft.

Check out the Phish Market today!

Together, we can outsmart scammers and keep our digital campus secure!
