Phishing Attempt

Yesterday, the FDU email domain experienced a phishing attack originating from a compromised FDU email account. The message, which falsely advertised a job opportunity assisting visiting professors, is shown below.

Our team has contained the issue by removing the message from FDU inboxes and assisting the compromised user. If you believe you may have provided personal information to the scammer—such as your NetID password—stop communication with the individual immediately, change your password, and create a support ticket at SAMI Support. In the ticket, indicate what information you shared with the scammer.
