The link redirects to a page that looks exactly like the Vassar Central Authentication Service page, which is used to login to Banner Online and other services.
Why this is phishing
The link in the email does not go to a Vassar site or any other service related to Vassar.
The email message is extremely generic and lacks any details.
The Vassar College Information Technology department is called CIS (Computing and Information Services), not ITS.
Official messages from CIS or other Vassar departments would not ask a user to click on an outside link to read a simple message.
Additional notes
This is an extremely dangerous Phishing attempt. If you clicked on this link and may have completed the form, please contact the Service Desk immediately at x7224 or servicedesk@vassar.edu
Always examine the link! Look at the information in your web browser to determine whether or not the site you are directed to is a Vassar site or an unknown (or suspicious) one.
A phone call to the alleged sender would quickly verify if this is a legitimate email. It only takes a few minutes to pick up the phone!
Report it as phishing to Google. Before deleting the message, make sure to click on “report phishing”.
A little paranoia goes a long way! Be suspicious of any email messages similar to this one.
