As we are STILL receiving questions on the authenticity of the SPAM/PHISHING EMAIL reported last week, and MSE members are forwarding to others to question, PLEASE READ the original message sent last week. Please DO NOT EVER fwd suspect messages to others, instead fwd as an attachment only to 'abuse@purdue.edu'. DO NOT OPEN, CLICK, SCAN THE QR CODE, NOR REPLY TO SPAM MAIL!

Importance: High Good Evening MSE Dept., I just received a phishing email allegedly from 'administrator@purdue.edu', and reported it to 'abuse@purdue.edu' as suspect spam mail. If you receive a message saying you need to change/update your password within 24 hours, containing a QR code, and no signature line, please report it to 'abuse@purdue.edu' by forwarding as an attachment (NEVER fwd the actual suspect email, nor click on anything within the message). I moved it to my junk mail and blocked the sender, then deleted it altogether. I spoke with ITaP, and they confirmed they would never send an email regarding your password, nor a QR code, and if they have issues with your account, they will call you for verification.
