Beware phishing email from 'Glenda'

Colleagues,

Several ANR employees have received a phishing email purporting to be from Glenda Humiston. VP Humiston is not asking for gift cards; she uses her UCOP email for work. Please be extra careful to check the sender's email address if you receive emails that look suspicious. If you have questions, you may forward the suspicious email to help@ucanr.edu.

The phishing email is shown below:

Lynn, I am in a meeting right now as I will be busy after work but need you to get me some gift cards. Could you pick a few Apple gift cards for me, I tried purchasing online but no luck. When I'm done with the meeting I will reimburse you.

Kind Regards,
Glenda Humiston
