Please report any suspicious activity to abuse@memphis.edu. Protecting our personal information is everyone's responsibility.
Never reply to an unsolicited email that asks for your personal information. The University of Memphis will never request personal information (i.e. your SSN,
UUID and password, birth date, or any account numbers) via email. Other reputable
institutions (your bank, credit card company, or loan officers) would not email you
requesting this type of information either.
Never click on any links within an unsolicited email. Links within a phishing email often lead to counterfeit internet sites. For example,
a phishing email may contain the link "Click here to update your information" and
then lead to a phony business website requesting personal information. Always visit
an institution's website directly, using their official URL.
Always use common sense and good judgment. The UoM operates a broad array of security-related hardware and software designed
to safeguard sensitive personal and institutional data. However, our networks and
services are connected to the Internet, and we cannot block every fraudulent action
that occurs on the world wide web. We need everyone to look carefully at what appears
in your email - if it looks suspect, it probably is.
Remember - it is against the University's Acceptable Use Policy to share your account
information and/or password with anyone. Please don't do it!
