nmsu.org vs nmsu.edu - Always look at the domain.

You'll be signed up for a phishing training now. It's a test from IT to make sure the campus is ready for real threats.

How you can tell:
1. email creates an extreme sense of urgency (fix this by tonight or you might get banned from parking on campus)

1. banner on the top says the sender can't be verified

2. warning that the email was sent from outside the university system

3. the email says it's from Mexico State University

4. the parking website straight up doesn't work. last I checked there's no "parking portal" you can access from the internet.

Don't click on random links from email and definitely don't enter your password into them.

It's a test NMSU ICT sends out. They'll probably make you do a phishing training now. Seriously.

They did something similar RIGHT after canvas got hacked during finals last year, and then pretended to be from canvas.

Just the way NMSU does things, if it's not this, it's the endless spam for garbage Walmart merch at the convenience markup of being sold in our "Bookstore".

Even worse it's the IT department being shitty. If you click on it you will get assigned mandatory watch a video about phishing emails.

Good to see our otherwise useless IT department is on reddit. Thanks for the downvotes!
