Are you looking for a job? While looking for a job, be on the lookout for cybercriminals because they are looking for you. At the end of a semester, it is common for cybercriminals to target students, faculty and staff who may be looking for a job.
Cybercriminals will target you with emails “inviting you to interview with their company.” The emails will include a sense of urgency, such as “interview with us now because slots are filling up” or “schedule your interview now before the position is filled.”
