Does this look familiar?
In the wee hours of this morning, Missouri S&T mailboxes were flooded by "phishing" messages. The lures of choice were emails supposedly from "CentralBank" with the subject of "Security Measures". IT's Information Security team has taken steps to block the website linked in the offending messages, but the campus community should still watch out for these fraudulent messages and delete them from their mailboxes.
This latest scam was the result of a compromised student account on another University of Missouri campus. So, please remember to NEVER share your Missouri S&T password with anyone and know that the University will NEVER ask for your password via email.
