If the email directs you to click on a link (even something familiar such as iTunes, etc.) or input sensitive information, it could be an attempt to get your password or other important information. Verify with the sender personally if you are suspicious.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you feel that you have received some sort of phishing attempt:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If you receive an email that you suspect is a phishing attempt, you should forward it to <a href=\"mailto:servicedesk@georgefox.edu\">servicedesk@georgefox.edu<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>You should not click any links or open any attachments.<\/li>\n<li>When Google identifies that an email may be phishing or suspicious, they might show a warning or move the email to Spam.<\/li>\n<li>If an email wasn&#8217;t marked correctly, follow the steps below to mark or unmark it as phishing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ol>\n<li>On a computer, go to Gmail<\/li>\n<li>Open the message<\/li>\n<li>Next to &#8220;Reply &lt;&#8211;&#8220;, click &#8220;More&#8221; (represented by three dots vertically stacked)<\/li>\n<li>Click &#8220;Report Phishing&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<ul>\n<li>Request that anyone who has been emailed via the attempt also report it as phishing in their inbox.<br \/>\nIf you did not click on any links or reply, you do not need to do anything further.<\/li>\n<li>If you did click on a link or send a reply with sensitive information, you\u2019ll want to change your password as soon as you can in\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/my.georgefox.edu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=http:\/\/my.georgefox.edu&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1656022892097000&amp;usg=AOvVaw0gZ6IfjY24rC8-S4bd3hV2\">my.georgefox.edu<\/a> (this will automatically update your email password).
