Mickey,

Knowbe4 is actually the software we use to train and test the staff regularly.  However, when a phishing attempt looks as good as this one, IT is proactive to inform the staff as soon as we become aware of it.  Because this one is so good looking and ODV often makes inquiries about possible phishing attempts I asked Dave Distefano to also send a heads up to ODV.  Thanks.

73,

Phishing awareness is a basic IT responsibility. I recommend knowbe4 to my clients...
