In today’s digital landscape, protecting your online security is paramount, particularly in the realm of education. At Education Guru, we prioritize the safety and security of our community members’ personal information. To help you navigate your educational journey securely, we’ve compiled essential tips to protect against email scams and phishing attempts:
- Verify Sender Authenticity: Before responding to any emails purportedly from Education Guru, ensure they originate from addresses ending with “@educationguru.com.au”. Legitimate communications from us will always come from this domain.
- Exercise Caution with Links and Attachments: Be cautious of unexpected links or attachments in emails, as they may lead to phishing websites or contain malware. Avoid clicking on any suspicious links or downloading attachments from unknown sources.
- Scrutinize Email Content: Take the time to carefully review the content of emails, especially those pertaining to educational matters. Watch out for requests for sensitive information or urgent actions. If anything seems amiss, proceed with caution and verify the authenticity of the email.
- Safeguard Sensitive Information: Under no circumstances should you share sensitive information such as passwords or financial details via email. Education Guru will never request such information via this channel. If you receive an email requesting such information, exercise caution and refrain from responding.
