How to Avoid Opening Dangerous Emails.

If these times were not challenging already, DPHA’s IT gurus recently sent out excellent advice advising us to be on the lookout for hacker emails with dangerous malware and viruses. Here’s how to spot dangerous emails:


• Look closely at the e-mail address to make sure it’s spelled correctly.
• Hover over any links in the e-mail (but DON’T CLICK) to see the ACTUAL website you’ll be directed to. If there’s a mismatched or suspicious URL, delete the e-mail immediately.
• Watch for poor grammar and spelling errors.
• Never download an attachment unless you know who sent it and what it is.
• When in doubt, call the person who supposedly sent the e-mail on the phone to verify it’s legitimate.
