[Plantsci] FW: Phishing attempt

[Marquez, Mario A - (marquezm)]

Phishing attempt

Recent phishing attempt:

   In the past few hours, we've been getting reports at the 24/7 support center of an email being sent to students and staff stating that the user has exceeded the maximum number of login attempts and must click a link in the email to reset their password. This is fraudulent, and all students, staff, and faculty should be aware of this issue. Details of the email and a screenshot of it can be found here:

   Should you or anyone else receive this email, do not click on any links in the email or reply to the email itself. If the link has been clicked or account security is in question, please call the 24/7 support center at (520) 626-8324 to have the users' password reset and to confirm the status of the account. Future updates and security issues can be found at the InfoSec website, http://security.arizona.edu/

Thanks!
