Phish Bowl Alerts
The following phishing email was sent to hundreds of Brown email addresses this afternoon, with many of the hallmarks of a job scam (references "research assistant", working remotely, usual pay of $350/week, and providing a number to connect you to the scammers). If you were one of those who received it, please mark it as phishing to alert Google (open the message in a browser, click on the stack of three dots to the right of the REPLY button and select "Report phishing").
