How to spot a Phishing EmailWhether it’s you or someone you know, someone at some point, has or will receive a phishing email. Phishing emails may look real at first glance, but in fact, are ones disguised to get sensitive information from you. The best protection is to know how to spot them so you don’t take the bait. Here are some red flags that can help detect a phishing email and keep you from being subjected to

cyber fraud. But first, let’s talk about what the term “phishing” means...

“Freedom is not free.”- An Americian Idiom

Be aware of WHO and WHERE

your emails are coming from.

The email address of one of yourfavorite places,

may be mispelled.

A phishing email will often times have

a slight mispelling of websites or email

addresses.

In this fake EXAMPLE,a “c” is used, instead of an “o” in the word

“store”.

Cyber criminals bait people by creating email

addresses similiar to places you shop or do business with, so that at a glance

you’ll reply to.

Phishing emails will often times refer to you as

“Dear Customer” instead of your name because they don’t have the information they would like

to have.

Examples of red flags in Phishing Emails

“Phishing is the fraudulent attempt to obtain sensitive information such as usernames, passwords and credit card details

by disguising as a trustworthy electronic communication.” - Wikipedia

Emails sent during early morning hours can be a ‘red flag’

that they are phishing emails. [email protected]

If you receive an email and think

to yourself, “I DIDN’T ORDER

THAT.”

Cyber criminals will often email you about a situation

that didn’t occur, to get you to respond immediately without

thinking.

This may be a phishing email.

Do some double checkingbefore replying.

[email protected]/backorder/refunds

asks for your credit card or other sensitive information.

that much safer.
