Dear Email User

An obvious phish indicating lack of effort from the phisher. These types of phishes are sent in high volume where it mostly become numbers game, hoping to get at least 1 (if not more) victim out of thousands.

This phish tries to lure users with too good to be true offer of a grant. But there is no context, whatsoever, of what this grant is, which organization is providing it, and why is it being provided. The email subject has no meaningful connection with the text in email body. The name of the sender doesn’t match the name given in email signature. Grammatical mistake is also a factor indicating it is a phish.

Never reply to addresses given in phishes, not even to request unsubscribe from mailing list. Always take a moment to look for phishing signs. Whenever in doubt contact helpdesk or your departmental IT support.

Phish email with subject "Dear Email User" that offers a good sum of money as grant.
