Suspicious emails

Below are two examples of phishing scams. The first one spoofs a supervisor, so it immediately gets your attention.  

The second lures you to click a link.  There it will either harvest your credentials or attempt to download malicious software to your computer.

What should you do with these types of messages?

1. Ignore and delete; or

2. Ask IT.  We will gladly help you if you are unsure what to do.

 Okay Sawyer

 I'll be heading for a quick meeting and I would need you run to a nearby store. We've got surprise gift for some member/staff for the month. Email back and let me know if you could make the run right now.
