Fake University Portal Email Upgrade

This fake email "over limit" email purports to be from Lehigh and suggests that you must upgrade your email account because you are over your usage limit. It is NOT from Lehigh and should be deleted immediately. If you clicked the link and entered your Lehigh credentials, you should reset your Lehigh password immediately.

Lehigh Webmail: E-Portal update

This message is an attempt to confuse you with poor grammar and technical terms so you click the "Click here" link. Notice that the sender address is 'cmb@telia.com', and is NOT from the lehigh.edu domain. Do NOT click on the link! You can always verify your own quota limit by going to your account page (www.lehigh.edu/account) and checking quotas under mail management.

This message is an attempt to obtain your credentials through claiming your email has exceeded its memory size and requests you to upgrade your mailbox by clicking on the listed link. Do NOT click on the link! You can always verify your own quota limit by going to your account page (www.lehigh.edu/account) and checking quotas under mail management.

Fake "Account Update" Alert

This email implies that as a result of an upgrade, you need to log in to your account to check out the "effect". It provides a link to the supposed login page (LTS would not do this--users should know where the login page is, and should know not to click on links in email messages). Notice that this link goes to a page in a non-Lehigh domain (the page looks very much like our portal login page--but if you pay attention to the web address, it can't possibly be a Lehigh page). This email should be regarded as SPAM and deleted.

Fake "Account Update" Alert

Fake Portal Login Page

This is the fake portal login page that the fake "Account Update" alert message links to. It looks almost perfect. But notice the address, "chriscomport.com". This page is not real and you should not enter any information whatsoever into this page.
