An attempt to capture passwords, directed against Simmons specifically, has been circulated through email. At least some of the emails are entitled "Dear Simmons.edu Webmail Subscriber."

These messages do not come from Technology at Simmons College, and you should not respond. They are an example of phishing and are an attempt to get your email password. If you have responded, please contact the Help Desk immediately at 617-521-2222 or helpdesk@simmons.edu.

for more information on this sort of scam, see Simmon's page on Phishing.
