A new phishing email scam is under way that pretends to be from a company's human resources (HR) department and requests that the recipient read and acknowledge an attached "Rules of Conduct" document. This document, though, prompts you to login at a fake Office 365 login prompt, which is used to steal your credentials.

This email will be from "H.R Dept" and have a subject line of "Rules of Conduct" as seen below.

If you have fallen for this scam, you should immediately tell your company's administrator and change your Office 365 password. Your administrator should also confirm that no 3rd party apps have been given access to your account while the attackers had access to it.

Be careful, stay safe, and have a nice weekend!
