Urgency, pressure and unusual requests are common phishing tactics. Stop before clicking or replying.
Oops! You clicked a simulated phishing test.
These simulations are part of our ongoing cybersecurity awareness programme to help everyone recognise phishing attempts. Phishing remains the most common cyber threat, and even experienced professionals get caught out.
Remember these rules to stay safe online:
2
Inspect
Check the real sender address, preview links and look for anything that feels unexpected or inconsistent.
3
Verify
Confirm suspicious requests through a trusted channel or a known contact record.
Important!
AI tools now allow attackers to craft convincing, error-free emails that can bypass many of the traditional warning signs. The indicators above are still your best defence, but if something feels unexpected or off, always trust your instincts.
Unsure about an email?
Do not click! Just report it report as phishing in Outlook or to the IT Service Desk.
