How to spot phishing email

Phishing messages try to rush you into clicking a link, opening an attachment, or revealing passwords. Legitimate vendors rarely threaten account closure in the same hour.

Common red flags

• Sender address that almost matches a real domain (e.g. support@clark-techsolutions.com).
• Generic greeting ("Dear customer") instead of your name.
• Urgent language, gift cards, or wire-transfer requests.
• Links that do not match the displayed text — hover on desktop before clicking.

If you clicked something

Disconnect from Wi‑Fi if malware is suspected, change passwords from a different device, enable MFA on email and banking, and open a support ticket with the message forwarded as an attachment. Do not reply to the sender.
