Don't fall for phishing
Please read our phishing article for more details.
Know the sender
- Commonly, phishing emails impersonate someone you know (including a member of the YCP community), but originate from an unfamiliar, outside email address. Please pay very careful note of the sender, be skeptical of offers to buy anything, and don't click any links that you aren't already expecting.
Look out for [EXTERNAL] email tags
- All incoming mail to YCP employees from outside of the @ycp.edu domain is marked with [EXTERNAL] in the email subject.
