Report phishing in Gmail and spam in Google Calendar

It is important that when you experience a phishing attempt in an email that you report the email to Google. This will allow Google to take the appropriate security measures for you and other users. Navigate to the following webpage from Google's Help Center for instructions to Avoid and report phishing emails.

If you have shared your UIndy password, other personal information, or made a purchase, you will need to change your UIndy password immediately.

It is important if you bought gift cards or installed software because of a phishing attempt, that you contact the UIndy IT Help Desk by submitting a IT Help Desk ticket or calling (317) 788-3318.
