How to report Phishing

Reporting instructions for Phishing Messages

Microsoft Outlook:

PhishNotify button is a one click way to submit phishing emails. This is the preferred method.

Alternate Method:

If you are unable to use the PhishNotify button you may manually submit an individual message in its full and original state in Outlook, use the ribbon and buttons as follows:

Open the message you want to forward in the reading pane or in its own window.
- You can also just highlight the email in the message list.
- To forward multiple messages as attachments at one time and attached to one email, highlight all the ones you want to send in the message list.
If the message is open in your Outlook's reading pane make sure the HOME ribbon is selected and visible.
If the message is open in its own window make sure the MESSAGE ribbon is selected and visible.
Click More (or the More Respond Actions icon if only that is visible) in the Respond section.
Select Forward as Attachment from the menu that appears.
Address the message to phishing@minotstateu.edu and click send.
