Don't get hooked by phishing scams!

Our 12,000 employee email addresses make us a prime target for scammers, but don’t get suckered in. Phishing/spam emails can damage computers, servers, files and more. They usually contain an external sender address and links, but another easy way to detect spam is if it asks for your username and password. IT will never do this! If an email looks suspicious or you accidentally click on a phishing link, report it to IT right away by calling 416-2700 (option 5).
