Protect yourself from scams, and lookout for these warning signs:

  1. Unsolicited. A direct email, phone call, or text you were not expecting (even if it appears to be from someone you know, or someone at 黑料社).
  2. Sneaky variations of (legitimate) email or web addresses. Examples: Ending in @bc-edu.org instead of @bc.edu or a web address that does not contain bc.edu.
    • If you aren鈥檛 sure if an email is authentic, instead of replying, contact the sender using information you already have about them (such as their 黑料社 email address from the 黑料社 Directory).
  3. Urgency. Scammers want to entice quick action.
  4. Requesting info. Asking you to share personal or financial information. Don't share your personal information via email, text, or clicking on links.
  5. Typos, odd phrasing, unnecessary capital letters are often indicators of a scam.
