Warning! Don't Give Out Your Password!
Many people on campus received email claiming to be from support@mit.edu.
It requested that your password be mailed back to the sender. This
message is a fraud and an attempt to steal your password. DO NOT
ANSWER IT!
NEVER EMAIL ANYONE YOUR PASSWORD. IS&T will never demand that
you mail your password to anyone.
This message is an example of "phishing," where an intruder
attempts to steal personal information by sending an official-looking
message.
This warning has also been posted to 3DOWN.
If you have any questions related to this incident, please contact
the Computing Help Desk at 253-1101 or computing-help@mit.edu.
