If you believe you have received a phishing email, OIT recommends the following:

Forward the email to security@pdx.edu. Your report will be investigated, and will help prevent many others on campus from falling victim to the attack.

If you are sure the email you have received is a phishing attack, log in to mail.pdx.edu and open the email in question. In the menu next to the reply button, click on “Report Phishing.”

You can also mark spam emails using the procedures in the article Mark or unmark Spam in Gmail.

If your contacts tell you that they’ve received phishing or spam emails from you, ask them to forward a copy of the message to abuse@pdx.edu. Ask them to take the same steps listed above and contact OIT’s helpdesk if they have any questions.
