Email Spoofing on Microsoft Emails
Hi Cloudstaffers,
Here is some important information about a recent email spoofing issue discovered by a security researcher. This advisory is all about email spoofing, a method that hackers use to impersonate email addresses, making their emails appear legitimate and increasing the likelihood of their targets falling for deception.
To keep safe from these kinds of tricks, here's what you need to do:
- Stay sharp: Always check who the email is from. Watch out for urgent requests for personal info, messages that seem too general, or any mistakes in spelling or grammar.
- Be careful with links and files: Don't click on links or open files from emails you don't know or don't trust. If you're not sure, hover over the link to see where it goes.
- Trust your gut: If something seems off, let the data security team know. You can do this by messaging them on Teams or using Uberticket [PB8324.3] Data Security Support. Also, if you think an email might be fake, mark it as "Phishing email" in Outlook. The team will check it out and tell you what they find.
Remember: Stay alert, stay sharp, and stay safe online!
