SUSPICIOUS EMAIL 

REPORTing

USERS SHALL REPORT ALL SUSPICIOUS EMAILS

Be Cautious; malicious cyber actors continue to improve their tactics, techniques, and procedures. If you receive suspicious emails do NOT interact with them. If utilizing your Marine Corps account, report them as an email attachment to suspicious@usmc.mil. Phishing attempts appear in various forms of communication; such as emails, phone calls, social media, messaging services, etc.; all in an attempt to trick you into providing personal identifiable information (PII). Phishing email attempts regularly utilize subjects and email addresses that appear to be legit. Look for a valid digital signing certificate to verify the identity of the sender.
