Phish Bowl
Use this list to see some phishing (fake) emails that have been spotted at Cornell.
Below you'll find some examples of phishing email seen on campus. We worked to remove any malicious content within the messages, but recommend against interacting with any links or email addresses in the examples. If you get a suspicious email but don't see it listed here, DO NOT assume it is safe. There are many variants of every phish, and new ones are sent each day. When in doubt, consult with your IT support staff or the IT Service Desk. You may also want to check the list of Verified Cornell Communications.
Report suspected phishing attempts to the IT Security Office. Forward the entire text of the message and email headers to security-services@cornell.edu.
