New Phishing Email

New phishing e-mails claim to be from "MTA Support" and are sent in the hope that you will click on the link and enter your Mount Allison username and password.  

Once you do this, the information is captured and your account is compromised. Unauthorized users can then log into your account and change your identity to send out spam.  Never click on one of these links.  No reputable institution would ever ask you to do this.  Instead, please delete these types of messages.

REMEMBER: Mount Allison Computing Services staff will NEVER ask for your username and password!

The most recent one looks like this:
