OPM HR government wide email test

Anonymous
My agency got an email blast this morning from OPM testing out a new government wide email list (I cannot wait for the eventual unsubscribe reply all email storm) telling us to respond. We have now received at least 5 follow on messages from our agency telling us alternatively to respond and not to respond. It is fun watching bureaucrats try and figure out how best to cover their asses.

What moron thought it was a good idea to send an email from a vague sender name, limited text, and a link to click on? We've been training for this for years - never click on suspicious emails! Feels like a trap.

Why does OPM suddenly want this capability? It feels spooky to me, though I’ll admit if they rolled it out last week I’d just think it was incompetent.

If you don’t reply within 2 minutes, they jjjw you’re not working. It’s a test.

Someone was working outside of core hours. If they didn’t get that approved that’s time card fraud.

Mine came very early in the morning. I pushed the Report Phishing button right after.

I would not do so if it is GOV or EDU, which should be legit.

My agency received an agency Broadcast telling us this was coming and said that if we receive communication from that email address, we should consider it safe.

You have clearly failed your cyber awareness training.

I'm literally laughing out loud. This thread is so funny.

No that’s how they engage in cyber attacks.
