My job skills are “info sec/cyber defense/risk management/paranoid nerd” but another part of my job is to educate people. I do that by sending periodic notices to the faculty and staff about what’s going on in the world that could potentially harm them.
Having said that, I thought I’d share with you a thought I shared with them this morning. Please note, I do not use the same language with my coworkers and executive staff that I use with you. What follows is a Survival of the Fittest version of my original message…
Sometime in the next few weeks, the government will be sending out a shitload of money and if you don’t think the scammers are going to work hard to get that money, you are naïve at best, bless your heart.
- Anyone sending you unsolicited emails or calling you and directing you to a “stimulus package” website is most likely a scammer.
- Anyone asking you to enter your bank account information in order to facilitate direct deposit of stimulus funds is most likely a scammer.
Anyone else claiming to have the “inside scoop” is bullshitting you. Get away from them.
