Report Spam and Phishing Attacks
If you are concerned about receiving spam, or other unwanted email, browse the Spam Filtering page and forward spam messages as attachments (not as inline text) to is.spam@nyu.edu.
If you receive a phishing message informing you of a sudden account closure or requesting your personal information and NYU password, forward it as an attachment to phishing@nyu.edu. This helps train our email filters to block such messages in the future.
Report Threatening and/or Harassing Email
If you are receiving threatening or harassing emails, immediately forward the message(s) to the Technology Security Services at security@nyu.edu. Be sure to include the headers of the email so that we may effectively resolve your request in a timely manner. If you feel that you are in physical danger, you should also call the NYU Office of Public Safety's emergency number: 1-212-998-2222 (8-2222 if dialing from an on-campus telephone).
