Editing How to combat phishing attacks (section)

== Step-by-Step Instructions for Handling a Phishing Attack ==
1. **Look for Clues to Identify Phishing Emails**
   - **Verify the sender’s name and email address**: Check both the display name and the email address for any irregularities or misspellings.
   - **Check for spelling and grammar errors**: Phishing emails often contain mistakes; be cautious.
   - **Review the salutation**: Unusual greetings may indicate a phishing attempt.

2. **Examine the Email Body Without Clicking**
   - After opening an email, avoid clicking on any links or downloading attachments. Read the content for any suspicious links that may lead to harmful sites.

3. **Do Not Provide Any Information**
   - Refrain from responding to or providing any personal information to the sender. Legitimate organizations typically do not ask for sensitive information via email.

4. **Stay Vigilant and Trust Your Instincts**
   - If something feels off, it’s essential to verify the email's authenticity by contacting the company directly using information from their official website, not through the potentially fraudulent email.
