Expert Opinion

Picture this: a caller claiming to be from your IT department asks you to follow up on a non‑existent email. The voice sounds plausible, but the request to share personal details or click a link is a classic phishing tactic, often paired with caller ID spoofing to appear local. Stay calm, never share credentials, and independently verify the request through official channels—call the known IT help desk number or send an email from your own address. Block the number on your device and report it to your carrier’s spam‑list service. Regularly update security awareness training to keep the whole team alert.
