🚨 Stay Safe: Verify Your Emails 🚨

We want to ensure you stay protected from potential phishing attempts. If you receive an email claiming to be from Mitacs, follow these simple tips to verify its authenticity:

✔️ Check the sender’s address: Ensure it ends with “@mitacs.ca.”
✔️ Look for personalization: Genuine emails typically include your name or project-specific details.
✔️ Beware urgent requests: Mitacs will never ask you to provide sensitive information or payments unexpectedly.
✔️ In doubt, confirm with us! If in doubt, reach out directly to helpdesk@mitacs.ca.

If something feels off, trust your instincts and double-check before clicking. Stay safe and informed!
