The 3-second trick to spotting a phishing email.

Phishing attacks are getting more sophisticated every day, but there's one simple trick that can save you from most of them. Before clicking any link or downloading any attachment, hover your mouse over it (don't click!) and look at the actual URL or file path that appears. Does it match what you'd expect? Is it from the company's legitimate domain? Are there suspicious characters or misspellings? This 3-second check can prevent 99% of phishing attacks. In this guide, we walk you through real examples of phishing emails, show you the red flags to look for, and provide practical steps to protect yourself and your organization. Remember: legitimate companies will never ask for sensitive information via email. When in doubt, contact the company directly using a phone number or website you know is real.
