What does a virus look like?
- Look for (DickinsonISD) following a user's name. This indicates the email originated from a DISD account.
- If the section before the body of an email reads External, be cautious. It may appear to be from someone you know but could be a phishing email. Be careful not to open attachments or click on links.
- Please do not forward an email you suspect is a virus, even to a person in the Technology Department. Your suspicions are probably right!
- If you do suspect you receive a virus, delete it and remove it from your deleted items.
