I emailed my IT team when I saw something suspect (which was a phish test), and they said "good job, but in the future click the link we insert in the email body to report"
Hmm...actually, I'd rather not click anything in a dodgy email, thanks.
And now you've passed the second test. Don't trust links in dodgy emails.
The lesson was "don't trust anybody, not even your own IT team"
Especially your own IT team.
Do they mean a banner in the message with a report suspicious link?
Yes. It's a legitimate inserted banner that goes on every inbound. It just blew my mind a bit that the correct action was to click a link in an email!
Thanks to microsofts excellent design team they will be hiding buttons in the bar in outlook new so most vendors are moving to banners with actions.
