Dear Members,

We would like to inform you that we have recently identified unauthorized activity involving the misuse of our email address to distribute malicious content. If you receive any unexpected emails from us—particularly those containing unfamiliar links or attachments—please exercise extreme caution. 

Do not click on any suspicious links or download files unless you are certain of their legitimacy. Our team is actively investigating this matter and taking all necessary steps to secure our systems and prevent further incidents.

In the meantime, if you receive any questionable messages appearing to come from us, we kindly ask that you report them directly to our team. For your safety, kindly refer to the guidelines below:

10 Most Common Signs of a Phishing Email:

  1. An Unfamiliar Tone or Greeting
    Look for language that isn’t quite right – for example, a colleague or family member is a little more formal or casual than normal.

     
  2. Grammar and Spelling Errors
    One of the more common signs of a phishing email is bad spelling and the incorrect use of grammar.

     
  3. Inconsistencies in Email Addresses, Links & Domain Names
    Look for discrepancies in email addresses, links and domain names. If a link is embedded in the email, hover over the link to verify that what ‘pops up’ is a legitimate URL

     
  4. Threats or a Sense of Urgency
    Emails that threaten negative consequences or use a sense of urgency to encourage, or even demand, immediate action should always be treated with suspicion.

     
  5. Suspicious Attachments
    If an email with an attached file is received from an unknown sender or if the recipient did not request or expect to receive the file, the email and attachment should be virus-scanned before opening.

     
  6. Unusual Request
    If an email is received asking for something to be done that is not the norm, it is a red flag for a potentially malicious email.

     
  7. Short and Sweet
    While many phishing emails will be stuffed with details designed to offer a false sense of security, some phishing messages will have sparse information hoping to trade on their ambiguity.

     
  8. Recipient Did Not Initiate the Conversation
    Because phishing emails are unsolicited, an often-used hook is to inform the recipient they won a prize, will qualify for a prize if they reply to the email, or will benefit from a discount by clicking on a link or opening an attachment.

     
  9. Request for Credentials, Payment Info or Other Personal Details
    One of the most sophisticated types of phishing emails contains a link to a fake landing page the attacker created that recipients are directed to in an official-looking email.

     
  10. See Something, Say Something
    Identification is the first step in the battle against phishing. Organizations need to promote security awareness and condition employees to report potentially malicious emails.


We appreciate your vigilance and understanding as we work to address this issue and as always, stay healthy, stay safe, and stay connected.

Practicing caution, 

The UCN Team
