We have received numerous reports of a phishing email that was sent to many Longwood email accounts over the weekend. The email appears to be from the Longwood email administrator and asks that the recipient forward their username and password. As a reminder, phishing is a fraudulent attempt, usually made through email, to steal your personal information. Characteristics of these emails may include requests for your username, password, social security number, or other personal information. If you receive one of these messages, delete it immediately. Do not reply, click on any links, or open any attachments included in the message. Please note that NO legitimate organization will ask for your password or other personal information via email.

If you have questions please contact User Support Services at 434-395-4357 or email helpdesk@longwood.edu.
