钓鱼红旗
以下是应删除的可疑电子邮件的示例。如果您认为您通过可疑或网络钓鱼电子邮件发送了信息，请联系 helpdesk@msvu.ca..
密码请求
网络钓鱼电子邮件或表格有时会要求您的个人信息，如您的用户名，密码或出生日。可能会要求您通过电子邮件发送您的信息，或者电子邮件可以链接到虚假的Web表单或假登录页面。如果您填写表格，您将为黑客提供您的信息。
No representative of the Mount, such as the IT&S Help Desk or the Registrar’s Office, will ask you for the type of information, especially passwords.
The only time we will ask you for account information is when you contact the IT&S Help Desk. The Help Desk staff may ask you for some questions to verify who you are before resetting your password or any other account changes.
In this example, you are asked to provide your username, password, and date of birth by email, which IT&S will never do.
帐户验证
网络钓鱼电子邮件通常会要求您通过单击链接来验证您的密码。坐骑不这样做。
即使消息似乎来自您信任的人，也不要点击可疑电子邮件中的链接。
请勿在电子邮件中发送您的个人信息。
Emails from IT&S will minimize the use of links, but if we do send a link, it will be at msvu.ca.
In this example, you are asked to click a link to verify your account, something IT&S will never do. As well, it appears to come from ITNS@msvu.ca (a fake address) not helpdesk@msvu.ca..
写得不好
网络钓鱼电子邮件往往写得很差。它们可能具有语法，拼写，大写或标点符号错误。
此示例与大写，语法和标点符号错误串行。
从一个不熟悉的电子邮件地址
Emails from the Mount’s IT&S Department will come from an individual’s email address ending in @msvu.ca or from helpdesk@msvu.ca.. For instance, if you get an email from a Yahoo account claiming to be from the IT&S Department, you will know that it is phishing.
威胁或紧急
通常网络钓鱼电子邮件将尝试吓到您单击一个链接。他们可能会威胁要删除您的帐户。他们可能会说一些很紧急，你需要通过一定的截止日期填写一种形式。
IT&S will never send threatening emails.
请注意帐户删除或停用的最终警告和后果，就像在此示例中：
