The UO Phish Tank is a collection of suspicious email messages that have been reported to the UO Information Security Office. There are a couple kinds of messages that appear in the Phish Tank.
Phishing messages: These are harmful emails that target anyone, both within UO and outside. They are marked with a hook (for campus emails) or a globe (for emails outside of campus). You can view these confirmed malicious messages without logging in. Safe messages (Login to view): These are examples of legitimate emails which are marked with a shield. To view messages that were reported as suspicious but are actually legitimate, please log in. Click the "Login with Duck ID" button, then log in with your Duck ID and password.
