6/11/20 – “You recently made a request!!!” – Phishing Scam

Posted on: June 12th, 2020 by Mykael Baig

Below is the most recent phishing email we have seen. Similar to past emails, this scam attempts to trick users into sending personal account information (e.g. username/password/SSN). Users should not click any links in this email, should not respond to the sender or any addresses in this email, and should delete it right away. As a reminder, Loyola will never ask for your password or to verify your account. If you have any questions about this or any email, before you act on the email, please call or email the ITS Helpdesk 773-508-4487, helpdesk@luc.edu.
