What should I do if I have responded to or clicked on a phishing email?

If you have responded to or clicked on a phishing email, please follow these steps to protect your IT account:

  • If you “logged in” on a suspicious website, then change that password immediately
  • Report the incident immediately via the Report a breach form
  • If the compromised account could be used to access financial services (bank or student loans), inform them with the details of what has happened
  • For all other phishing emails, please use the Report Phish button in Outlook
