Double-check the senders email address before responding or clicking any links
Look to make sure the sender's email address is correct. You may need to hover over the senders name or tap the display name of the sender on a mobile device, check for misspelled names, domains, or substitute letters (such as an capital "i" for an "L"). If the sender looks correct you can verify the URL by hovering over it on your PC and looking in the bottom left corner of the browser window. If you are on mobile you can press and hold (don't click!) to open a preview window to verify the URL. Don't click links you don't trust!
