Phishing Attack Aimed @ NCSU: Fake e-mail from webmasters@ncsu.edu

The Office of Information Technology (OIT) is investigating a phishing attack targeting campus email users. The message appeared to come from the email address ‘webmasters@ncsu.edu’. This is not a valid email address in use at NC State.

As a reminder, the password on your account should be known only to you. OIT will never ask you to send your password to us via email, therefore any email like the one you may have received today should be considered suspect and you should not reply to it
