Re: Phishing emails to watch out for
Received this today, assumed it is phishing as the email address is suspicious, the footer is not to RMIT standard, and the wording is very general and could be sent to anybody.

Re: Phishing emails to watch out for
the attached seems to be quite a sophisticated scam email because the address uses RMIT's email domain, logo, and full name 'RMIT University', and correct addressing to your name, and it looks like a system-generated alert about online training. And it seems urgent. But the subject line has a spelling error and poor grammar in the last lines of text.
