網際網路上詐騙的事件層出不窮，詐騙集團常假冒單位名義發出難辨真偽的電子郵件來騙取您的帳號密碼，再利用詐騙所取得的資料，進行以下用途：

假冒該帳號使用者身份，藉以進行新的社交工程型網路詐騙。例如：取得您的電子郵件聯絡人資料，寄信或打電話給他們來詐騙金錢或郵寄非法程式使其電腦中毒或植入木馬。
使用者經常為求方便使用一組相同的帳號密碼，詐騙集團可用來猜測使用者其他系統的帳號密碼。

因詐騙手法日新月異，為避免上當受騙，僅提供一些電子郵件詐騙的注意事項供您參考：

請注意本中心系統管理者絕對不會要求使用者提供密碼，即使您看到的是本中心所發出之郵件（因為偽造寄件者是相當容易的技術，且無絕對的方法可防範），因此請不要提供密碼給任何人！
任何要求提供帳號密碼、身份證字號或個人資訊的信件，極有可能是詐騙，一定要提高警覺。
回信地址非發信單位所擁有，極有可能是詐騙，例如：本校的郵件網域一定為「nthu.edu.tw」結尾。
不要點選不明信件中的連結網址，最好自己輸入，以免被偽造的網址所欺騙。
郵件中的附件，若不確定，請不要執行，極有可能導致中毒或資料外洩。
電子郵件來源判斷不易，即使看到署名是親朋好友或學校給您的郵件，若含有上述特徵也極可能是詐騙郵件。
許多詐騙信往往利用假日或非上班時段來寄發，造成收件者不易向相關人員或單位求證。
如果已不小心將密碼寄出或懷疑密碼已遭他人取得，請盡速更改密碼。
若您判斷為詐騙信，不予理會即可；如仍有疑問，請直接打電話向相關人員或單位求證，電話號碼一定要自行查證，不要用信件所提供的電話號碼。〈註：本中心服務電話為 31000 分機。〉

此外，若密碼太簡單〈如：12345678〉容易被不法人士猜中，為保障您使用網路安全，建議加強密碼強度或不定期更改密碼，以減少密碼外洩所造成的損失。

Description about phishing scams via mails

「Phishing,」 wikipedia
「What are phishing scams and how can I avoid them?,」 Indiana University

Real IT administrators NEVER attempt to acquire your username and password via emails. And the bad guys usually do it by phishing mails. Therefore, NEVER send your password to anyone.
Please delete phishing mails once you receive them. Do not follow their instructions.
If you have been a victim of a phishing scam, please reset your password according to the procedure which CCC provides as soon as possible to stop the bad guys from using your email account continually.
