The University of Arkansas reported:
The U of A is experiencing a sustained phishing attack targeting users with fraudulent job offers or notices of account closures. If you receive an email that asks for your personal information, such as phone number, UARK credentials, passwords or MFA (multi-factor authentication) code, do not click any links or share your personal information.
If given the information, attackers will attempt to log into your account and threaten account closure if you do not provide your MFA verification code. Attackers may also try to gain access to accounts via phone calls.
If you receive a request on your phone to verify your UARK account (and are not actively logging into any UARK services), this is an invalid request. If the verification request comes through as a phone call, press the option to report fraud. If the verification attempt comes from your Authenticator app, select "No, it's not me."
