⚠️Phishing e-mails⚠️

We are currently seeing an increase in phishing emails targeting members of our organization. These emails impersonate Officers or Cadets and typically follow this pattern:

Initial email: A request to meet.
Follow-up email: Claims they cannot meet and asks for personal information or gift cards.
Source: Suspicious Gmail accounts, not official addresses. (Sometimes not visible until you click reply)

What you should do:

Do not respond or click any links.
Report the email in Outlook by selecting Report as Phishing.
Notify your chain of command immediately.
