Security Alert: New phishing attempt

A new phishing email purporting to be an important email alert from Weill Cornell Medicine is circulating within the WCM community:

phishing attempt 

If you click on the link provided in the email, you are taken to a site that has been designed to look similar to one of our WCM login pages:

If you receive this message, DO NOT reply, click any links, or provide any personal information. Please delete this email. ITS has blocked the link internally. Do not click the link on your mobile device or outside of the WCMC network as the link will still be active.

 

What do you need to do?

  • If you have already clicked the link and provided information, contact ITS immediately at 212-746-4878. We will work with you to ensure your account and computer were not compromised and take any necessary action to protect your information. You should also change your password at identity.weill.cornell.edu (NOTE: ITS will not ask for your password to validate your account). 

 

  • If you have provided your Social Security Number or driver’s license number, we strongly recommend reporting this to identitytheft.gov. Additionally, report the theft of your driver’s license number to your state’s Department of Motor Vehicles.
