Cybercriminals are adept at creating imposter websites that look like standard login pages for Google, Microsoft Live, and even Simmons’ own login page.  Simmons login page url will always begin with “idp.simmons.edu” and any other url even if it contains “simmons.edu” later in the text is not our login page.

• Change your password regularly.
• Report phishing messages you receive in the Gmail menu with “Report Phishing”
• Don’t forward phishing messages to anyone. Friends and colleagues can fall victim too.
• Consider using Gmail’s mobile apps on iPhone and Android instead of the provided mail apps.  Gmail’s app presents warnings about suspicious messages and allows you to report phishing messages.
• Don’t click on links or download attachments from messages you are not expecting.

Remember, real Simmons sites start with “idp.simmons.edu!”
