Please review the key signs to identify a phishing email

• Look for mails requesting your sensitive information such as Credit Cards, Passwords etc. via email. Legitimate companies will never ask for this over email.
• Beware of urgent or threatening messages claiming that your account has been suspended and prompting you to click on a link to unlock your account.
• Check for poor grammar or spelling errors. While legitimate companies are very strict about emails they send out, Phishing emails often contain poor spelling or grammar.
• Hover before you click!. Phishing emails often contain links to malware sites. Don’t trust the URL you see! Always hover your mouse over the link to view its real destination.
  If the link claims to point to a known, reputable site, it’s always safer to manually type the URL into your browser’s address bar.
• Check the Greeting – Is the message addressed to a generic recipient, such as “customer” or “Sir/Madam?” If so, be careful & think twice! Legitimate businesses will often use your real first and last name.
• In addition to the greeting, phishing emails often leave out important information in the signature. Legitimate businesses will always have accurate contact details in their signature, so if a message’s signature looks incomplete or inaccurate, chances are it’s spam.
