    Reporting a phish to Ryerson is quick and easy:

    • Forward the email to spamrec@ryerson.ca
    • Then, delete the email from your mailbox without clicking on any links or attachments.

    If you’re on Ryerson Gmail, avoid using the “Report phishing” option that’s built into the Gmail platform. Forwarding the phish to spamrec@ryerson.ca ensures you’re reporting it directly to us so we can stop it from reaching others at the university.
