Phishing Scams and Schemes Unveiled

The following scam is a direct deposit scam. The scammer is impersonating an employee and asking that payroll change their direct deposit information over to the scammer’s info.

You can tell this is a scam because of the email address, it is not a @vcu.edu address and the address used is head.4dmin. This is clearly a scam email, always check the sender’s address. Another sign that this is a scam is the fact that the email is too generic. It has almost nothing personalized about the email. If you see an email like this please delete it.
