Phishing emails aren’t going away. In fact, they’re becoming more sophisticated — and more dangerous — every year. These cleverly disguised messages trick employees into clicking malicious links, handing over credentials, or downloading infected attachments, often leading to devastating data breaches, financial loss, or ransomware attacks.
At Seashore IT, we help businesses like yours spot threats before they strike— and put the right systems, training, and tools in place to stop phishing at the source.
🚨 What Does a Phishing Email Look Like?
Most phishing emails have a few telltale signs — here’s what to watch for:
- Impersonation of a trusted sender— like your CEO, bank, or even Microsoft 365
- Urgent requests— “Your account will be locked in 24 hours!”
- Spelling or grammar issues— many phishing emails are rushed or poorly translated
- Mismatched URLs— hover before you click. Does the link match the sender?
- Attachments you didn’t ask for— never open unexpected invoices, resumes, or downloads
Phishing is a human-targeted attack— which is why tech alone isn’t enough. You need people, processes, and protection working together.
