Important Information Security Scam
It has come to our attention that some people affiliated with Georgia College (including recent student graduates) are receiving text messages claiming they are from President Cox requesting gift cards. While this is a common phish scheme in emails, it is unusual for these messages to be delivered via text messages to personal phones. If you receive a text of this nature, please send all pertinent information (recipient phone number, message, and any other content) to iso@gcsu.edu. Do not respond to the text message!
