Winter and Spring Term, 2024
Dear OSU Community,
The days are getting longer, and Spring is around the corner! After a long winter, seeing the early spring bloomers come out, with the promise of warmer weather is a morale boost. With the warmer weather comes the themed cyber scams…expect to see tax season scams, employment fraud (especially geared towards students), and the like. Being vigilant and reporting suspicious e-mail is the best approach; let the Office of Information Security help you.
Respectfully,
David
