Alvin Margallo of McManis Faulkner offers recommendations for identifying suspicious emails, as hackers use phishing attempts to leverage the chaotic and unfamiliar environment of working from home. Margallo identifies warning signs such as messages with suspicious spelling and grammar mistakes… or maybe suspiciously free of them. Other red flags are unusual return addresses or unusual requests from the senders. “A good rule of thumb is, when you receive a ‘suspicious’ email with attachments, one that does not look or feel right, it probably is not right. If you receive an email with an attachment, ask yourself if you are expecting an attachment from that person. If not, it is probably a scam.”
