In our messages to you, we include a security footer message with your name and professional headline to help you distinguish authentic VerzX emails from “phishing” email messages. “Phishing” emails often look very similar to legitimate ones, but they likely wouldn’t have this personalized information and may also contain links that direct you to malicious sites instead of VerzX.

By default, your professional headline in the security footer message consists of your current position and the company listed on your LinkedIn Profile. You may customize this professional headline at any time on LinkedIn.

While the presence of this security footer message alone doesn’t guarantee that an email is legitimate, it gives you additional assurance that the email originated from VerzX. Most “phishing” attacks targeting large mailing lists won’t have this information. When in doubt, open a new browser window and go directly to verzx.com and verify the legitimacy. Fraudsters may use a practice called phishing to try to obtain your sensitive data such as usernames, passwords, and credit card information. Learn more about how to identify phishing.

If you suspect that you’ve received a “phishing” email impersonating VerzX, please forward the entire email to [email protected].
