[quote=Anonymous]This happened to a brand new (fresh out of college) employee at my company. Same thing - the “CEO” emailed her, asked her for her phone number so they could text, gift cards bought on debit card, etc. We (company leadership) didn’t figure it out until it was too late. If it makes you feel any better, this happened to an employee who was working on-site, using company equipment and she had gone through an orientation. There is required IT training on this topic but she hadn’t completed it yet (this was seriously her first week). The scammers target young people on purpose and they found her most likely because she updated her LinkedIn with her new job info. We did make a change to our emails as a result of this - there’s now an “external” tag on all emails that originate from outside the organization. I know your daughter feels bad and I’m sorry it happened to her. It really sucks. All I can say is that it’s a life lesson. [/quote]
