Reporting Email Abuse

皇家华人 College utilizes advanced email filters to block messages of a spam or phishing nature by moving them to the 鈥淛unk Email鈥� folder in your 皇家华人 email account.  As the threat landscape changes over time, these filters are continually adjusted to ensure ongoing protection.  The spam filters currently automatically reject over 90% of the total messages received by the 皇家华人 email servers.

Occasionally, spam or phishing messages may not be correctly blocked by these filters.  In these cases, please mark the message as spam in your inbox and then delete it. Marking the message as spam will improve the detection and blocking capabilities of the filters over time.

If you have received a phishing message in your 皇家华人 mailbox (typically messages whereby the sender is attempting to appear to be someone or some group you are familiar with in order to have you divulge a password, account number, or other personal information - sometimes these will contain a link that they want you to click on and other times they will ask you to reply with this information in the email), please use the 鈥淩eport Message鈥� or 鈥淩eport Phishing鈥� buttons in Outlook. If you have clicked on a link in the message or opened an attachment from the message, please contact either the student or employee helpdesk as appropriate.

If you are an external recipient of spam or phishing messages from what looks to be a 皇家华人 College sender, please contact abuse@greenriver.edu. All reports should include a forwarded full copy of the offending message. It is important to send not just the body of the message but the original full message headers as well. The message headers provide routing information that determine the source of the email and provide the information necessary, in the case of a phishing attack, to block any potential replies to the message.

Here is an example of what some of the message headers look like:

 

Return-Path: <aisl13@eirzzcom.net>

  • Received: from smtp.greenriver.edu (smtp04.osg.greenriver.edu [128.227.74.71]) by edge03.osg.greenriver.edu (Cyrus v2.2.12-Gentoo) with LMTPA; Thu, 19 Jun 2008 06:11:17 -0400
