As the holiday shopping season gears up, so are the scammers who want to steal your personal and financial information. Information Security Services reminds all students and employees that you should NEVER use your WVU credentials for personal online shopping or give up your password to anyone who asks for it.
Shoppers also should be vigilant about suspicious email, including those claiming to come from vendors or shipping companies. Phishing attempts aimed at stealing your username and password are often disguised as fake invoices or tracking notices.
