Report Message update

Please note the change in steps of how to Report Message in email when using Outlook Office 365. It is imperative for the security and integrity of the college that we report suspected phishing attempts in this manner, as this helps to make LLCC’s email filtering system more effective.

Phishing is a common identity theft method used by fraudulent parties. NEVER send your personal information including passwords, user IDs, credit card numbers or a social security number via email.  Passwords should NEVER be shared with ANYONE in any form.
