Hi [First Name]

This phish typically originates from a non-Cornell email address. The sender may appear as "[Spoofed Name] <[user]@gmail.com>" and typically impersonates a member of university leadership. The scammer's goal is typically to coerce the victim into purchasing gift cards. Do not reply to the sender.

Write back if you're available.

I need you to take care of something for me.

Thanks.

[Spoofed Name].
