What to do if you receive a potential scam:

  • If you aren鈥檛 sure an email is authentic, instead of replying, contact the sender using verifiable information:
    • BC email address from the BC Directory.
    • Work phone number from the BC Directory.
    • Be careful Googling company information, this can be spoofed. Use trusted email and phone numbers.
  • Do not reply to the email, or text/call any phone numbers included in the email.
  • Do not click on any links in the message. Do not copy any links provided and/or paste them into the search bar.
  • Forward it to phishing@bc.edu and use 鈥淩eport phishing鈥� in your email application. This will help prevent the message from reaching additional BC faculty, staff, and students.
  • If you click on a link or attachment in a scam email, please let Security know and they will help protect your account: security@bc.edu
