ITS has noted an increase in “vishing” phone calls being reported. Vishing, or voice phishing, occurs when imposters utilize features on Voiceover IP (VoIP) phones, such as spoofing caller ID, to solicit confidential information from people. Scam calls can include people posing as a member of the IRS, FBI, or technical support seeking personal details, like social security numbers, credit card information, or login information.   
 
How can you avoid vishing scams?

A follow-up change to the the email upgrade detailed below will  occur on Friday, July 1 from 9 p.m. - 3 a.m. During the upgrade window you may experience issues logging into email. All mail sent to your WCM mailbox will still be received during this time. Please plan accordingly. 

How much storage is available in my alumni email account?

Alumni email accounts hold 50GB worth of data. You can view how much storage is left in your account by clicking on the gear icon in the upper right of your account, then clicking General > My Account.  

What happens to my WCM email if I transition to NewYork-Presbyterian?

A WCM email account can coexist with an NYP account for the same person. Therefore, a graduating student moving to NYP will continue to have the full 60 day grace period to save important information.


 

What happens to my student WCM email account if I continue to work at the institution after graduation?

All graduates, whether they stay with WCM or transition to a position elsewhere, will receive a notification to set up a permanent alumni account. If you maintain an active affiliation with WCM, your @med.cornell.edu address will remain intact, and you can also use your alumni account.

What happens to my student email account once I graduate?

Upon graduating, you will have 90 days to register for an alumni email account and save any emails from your student account. During this grace period, please inform your contacts of your new alumni email address. After 90 days, your student account will be closed and all of your emails will be lost.

Will my alumni email account appear in the WCM Directory?

No, not unless you personally add it to your account.
