Phishing: You Just Reveived OneDrive Document.

Why this looks valid

  • The email appears to be from a Marist user or a colleague using OneDrive
  • OneDrive is a valid method of sharing files

Why this is phishing

  • There is not much information in the body of the email, including no specific salutation or greeting to the recipient
  • The purported user who shared the file is generic, with no information about who it is from
  • The Click Here to View Document link goes to a form that asks for your email address and password, but it is not the Marist login screen
  • Grammar errors, spelling errors, and generic salutations and sign-offs are usually indicative of a suspicious email

Additional notes

  • This is an extremely dangerous phishing attempt. If you clicked on this link and filled in your credentials, please contact the Help Desk immediately at x4357 (HELP) or helpdesk@marist.edu.
  • Report this message to Microsoft. In Outlook on the Web, click the Junk menu, and select Phishing
  • Always be suspicious of unsoliciated emails with file sharing links
  • A little paranoia goes a long way! Be suspicious of any email messages similar to this one.
