Fake HR Staff Training Message

Phish Bowl Alerts

Beware of a fraudulent email masquerading as a Brown Human Resources message regarding staff training. This email, which spoofs a brown.edu address, is NOT legitimately from a Brown University source. The message details a training course and provides a link to access a supposed staff list; however, this is a phishing attempt. Do not interact with the email, click on any links, or download any attachments.
