Pending Payment

This email below has been confirmed as malicious or fraudulent by the Information Security department. If you have received this phishing email, do not open any attachments or follow the link(s) in the message; simply delete the email.

This email has a number of red flags. The email address appears different from the actual address and even uses the username of the recipient as the domain name. The salutation just has the username instead of a proper name. Hovering over the “Open Secure Document” link reveals a redirect to a site that has nothing to do with storing and retrieving secure documents.
