To report a phishing email that is circulating, forward the suspicious email to helpdesk@gannon.edu.
The Gannon ITS department will never ask for personal information, such as your network password or social security number through an email. If ITS had an important message to get across regarding your email you would more than likely find it on my.gannon.edu. ITS would never send out an email asking you to click a link to deactivate your account or click a link to enter in your Gannon information.
How do I avoid a Phishing scam?
- Always be suspicious of e-mails asking for sensitive information.
- Never respond to an e-mail request for personal information.
- Never follow the links in an e-mail you suspect might be phishing.
I think I've been scammed. What should I do?
