we have ongoing internet security training. they send fake emails if you report them you get an atta boy.
last week I get a suspicious email and report it.....nothing
I talk to our IT guy (not full time/part owner)
Me "I got this suspicious email...reported it and didn't get an answer"
Him "send me a screen shot of the email"
Me "done"
Him "This is how you add someone to the blocked sender list"
Me "Yeah, I do that daily....how come I didn't get an answer on this email....I would have accepted a "proceed with caution" Do they only detect emails that they send?"
Him "That's the way the algorithm works"
this is the same person that argued that 55 F was too cold for the server room
The last agency I worked for hired some company to do that. The emails were painfully obvious but people still fell for them.They do this at my place and make some really good fakes. I just report every email that comes from IT security now![]()
But yes, I got to the point too where I reported every message from IT as spam.
