Students Phished with Bogus Job Offers

A phishing campaign is targeting college students with phony part-time job opportunities, according to Jeremy Fuchs at Avanan. The emails purport to come from the colleges’ job placement department, stating, “Paying for college isn’t easy; your financial aid only covers some of the costs. Whether you want to cover more tuition, or you’d like to have some pocket-money for each week, a job will afford you that financial leeway. There is a remote job opportunity in accordance with the work and study regulations of the Institution.”
