    The phishing testing at my company entertains me. They had to put in a mail header to get it past their own filters and we’re not required to report them, we just get a lecture if we’re tricked.

    Someone put that all together and wrote their own filters to automatically delete them. They shared how to do so in a public room and now I imagine the only people who ever fail are new hires.

    I set mine only to mark them read, not delete them, in case it got triggered incorrectly.

      We have these and i have term filtered but honestly the most obvious giveaway before you even read it is the font.

      I can only think of 1 person who routinely used a different font from Outlook’s default in my entire working life. Sometimes you get something copy pasted with formatting from elsewhere but that’ll be in the middle of an email.

      I dont know why the phishing tests always use a different font.

      We only have to do these tests at all because someone bought a load of Apple gift cards for the “CEO”.
