Spot a fake login email

Updated For SmarterMail Build 7692

Baca dalam Bahasa Melayu

An email that asks you to click a link and enter your password to “verify” your mailbox or avoid suspension is fake. A genuine mailbox-full notice never needs your password. To check your space, log in yourself and see Mailbox full.

  • An urgent threat, such as a deadline of a few hours or “mailbox suspended”.
  • A link that does not go to mail.officeniaga.com. On a computer, rest your mouse on the link without clicking to see the real address. On a phone, press and hold the link.
  • An official-looking sender name with a strange address behind it. A fake email can even appear to come from your own company.
  • A generic greeting like “Dear User” instead of your name.
  • Odd spelling, grammar or formatting.

The only place to log in is mail.officeniaga.com. Type it into your browser yourself or use a saved bookmark. See Log in to webmail.

  1. Change your password right away, then turn on two-step authentication.
  2. Tell your domain admin what happened.
  3. Check Settings for a Forwarding Address you did not set up (Forward email and autoresponder) and check your content filtering rules. Delete anything unfamiliar.
  4. Contact support on WhatsApp at +60 16-916 3324 if you need help.

Common issues

The email says my mailbox will be suspended today unless I click a link. Is this real?

Almost certainly not. Check the warning signs on this page, and if you are unsure, contact support on WhatsApp at +60 16-916 3324 instead of clicking the link.

The link went to a page that looks exactly like the Office Niaga login. How do I tell it is fake?

Check the address bar. It must show exactly mail.officeniaga.com followed by a / or nothing at all. Anything else, such as mail.officeniaga.com.login-verify.xyz or officeniaga-mail.com, is fake.

I already entered my password on one of these pages. What now?

Change your password immediately and tell your domain admin. See If you already entered your password on this page.
