Universities and financial institutions never ask for personal account information via email. In addition, the SU ITS will never ask for your password via email. Any email communication or unsolicited web form asking for this type of information should be closed and deleted. |
It is a good practice to remember that email is an insecure form of communication. Email systems cannot verify that the sender in the "From:" line is the actual sender of a message. Unless you are expecting a message from a sender, you should be aware of the insecurities that exist regarding incoming emails. More on phishing
When in doubt, e-mail archit@syr.edu.
