[All_jlau] Latest Phishing Attack

[Andy Kowalski]

Jefferson Lab e-mail accounts are currently receiving fake e-mails that claim to be from the from the Help Desk.  The e-mails assert that the recipient's e-mail account has exceeded its quota/limit.  The e-mail includes a link that will supposedly allow the recipient to increase their mailbox capacity.  

The subject of these emails states:  "YOUR MAILBOX QUOTA HAS BEEN EXCEEDED".  These are "phishing" e-mails aimed at getting you to reveal your account information.

If you have received this suspicious e-mail, delete it immediately. If you have already responded to this e-mail, clicked the link in the e-mail, or have other questions, please immediately change your password and then submit a CCPR to the Computer Center HelpDesk or send an email to helpdesk at jlab.org informing us that your account was been compromised
