Be cautious when receiving email messages that appear to be from Hamilton College. Provided are two screen captures from a recent phishing message. These screen captures are taken from the redirected webpage which spoofs the legitimate Hamilton Single Sign-On and Duo authentication pages.
Note that the URL is not a valid Hamilton College URL!
This is a spoofed Hamilton College Duo authentication page. There are some obvious signs that reflect this is a malicious, spoofed webpage:
- URL is not a valid Hamilton College URL
- Remember me is set to 90 days. Hamilton College has a 15 day Remember me.
- Hamilton College allows for Push and Telephone; there are no Duo prompts that will only accept a passcode if you are authenticating from a mobile device.
