Phish Bowl Alerts
New variations on the "Are you available" phishing emails have been spotted. They may come from what looks like legitmate sending addresses, but checking the full header details reveals the true sender:
From: "Dolan, Emily " <Emily_Dolan@brown.edu>
X-Sender: derek@roundcornercantina.com
Reply-To: "Dolan, Emily " <hiredes111@gmail.com>
To:
Subject: Are. you available...

Also note the Reply-To address, clearly not a legitimate @brown.edu one.
From: "Dolan, Emily " <Emily_Dolan@brown.edu> or "Gang Xiao" <gang_xiao@brown.edu>
