Campus Phishing Attempts Are on The Rise
The Cal Poly Pomona community is currently experiencing targeted phishing emails and text messages. These fraudulent emails and text messages intend to gain access to your campus account and personal information.
Think Before You Click: Never provide your BroncoID, BroncoPassword, or authorize any Duo Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) to another person or unknown request. Only you should have access to your account. Important: CPP staff and faculty will never ask you for your Bronco credentials, password, or MFA authorization or to submit this information through email, forms, or websites—any email, even when from a cpp.edu address, asking for this information is likely a phishing attempt.
Use Bronco411 to verify the sender's identity and if the request is appropriate.
If you feel at risk, change your BroncoPassword immediately by using the "Change/Reset Your Password" link at the bottom of the CPP home page.
