Got a suspicious email?

Answers you can use

Email safety

Is that email a scam?

Watch for urgent requests, unexpected attachments, and links that lead to unfamiliar sites. Open the company’s website yourself to verify a request. If you already shared banking information, call your bank immediately.

Printer help

Printer showing “offline”?

Check power and the connection first. Restart the printer, then confirm that your computer has the correct printer selected and no stuck print jobs. Avoid removing drivers until you know which connection the printer uses.

Computer security

Someone accessed your PC remotely?

Disconnect it from the internet, contact your bank from another device if financial information was involved, and change passwords from a trusted device. Have the computer inspected before using it for sensitive accounts again.
