Counsel employees to be suspicious of emails with upsetting or exciting (but false) statements that try to get them to react immediately. They should also be wary of emails that contain forms asking for confidential information, as well as links or attachments that aren't expected. Those links or attachments could be scams to steal valuable personal information, money or data, or they may install viruses or spyware on your network.
