Don’t Be a Victim!
Many people in our Andrews University community get scammed every year. Your email is a vital resource for your time at Andrews, but it can also be a gateway to scammers trying to get the best of you.

Stay Safe Online
Taking a small amount of time now can save you headaches down the line and perhaps even thousands of dollars! What is phishing? Find the answer and more on our ITS website here!

Job Offer Scams
Does the attached message look like a great opportunity? Look again. This email is from outside of our organization—note the warning label in yellow. It isn’t real.

If you receive an unsolicited email or phone call offering a campus job, it is almost certainly a scam. Job offers not given through the Andrews University website should be brought to the attention of ITS Help Desk. Official campus job postings can be found here.

Quiz Time
As scam email continues to threaten your college experience, we at ITS Help Desk encourage you to take a short, yet informative, quiz about “Phishing” here.

Get Help
If the legitimacy of an email is ever in question, please forward the email as an attachment to helpdesk@andrews.edu where a technician will look at it and provide you with feedback or instructions. Remember, if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
