Do Not Follow Links to eCampus

Always type https://ecampus.wvu.edu into the browser address bar yourself. This will avoid attacks that redirect you to a fake website in order to steal your username, password, or other information. An example of such an attack (known as spear phishing) can be seen in the image below. Notice that the web page looks like an exact replica of the new eCampus website, but the address is on a completely different server.
