Have you recently received a confirmation email from Amazon, GoDaddy, or some other website but you don’t remember placing the order? Chances are, you didn’t.
Once again those phishing scam artists are finding new and creative ways to get you to click on links.

As always, if you receive emails that appear suspicious, contact IRT Information Security Services (irt-security@lists.stanford.edu) and we will verify the validity of the email for you.

A good general rule is: When in doubt, don’t.
