Campus alert: Purdue never sends email asking for passwords

Purdue students and employees receiving emails that ask for password information are advised to immediately delete the emails and to not reply to them. Purdue will never send an email message asking users to reply with a password or other confidential personal information such as Social Security numbers or bank account numbers.

For details about the latest scam and what to do if you have already responded to such an email message, browse to the SecurePurdue Web site.
