Again phishing mails with subject "Urgent request" or without subject

Again, a phishing email is circulating purportedly from a supervisor or dean.

The sender addresses of these mails are fake - do not reply! Delete this mail.

The mail content is "Do you have a minute? I need you to complete a task for me discreetly. "

It is about a scam attempt. The attackers are trying to get you to buy Amazon or Google Play vouchers for them.

The sender address is fake, the reply address is ninccq9@gmail.com, which we immediately have blocked by Google.

How you can identify such a phishing mail and increase IT security can now also be read in our self-study course Bits-Online:
