This phish is an almost identical repeat of a phish with the same subject from last week. The signs that it’s a phish are pretty much the same:
- The generic “Recipients” in the To field
- The lack of any mention of a specific person’s name in the greeting or information about the sharing properties of the supposed file
- Penn State has no official affiliation with Dropbox, so you would never use your Access Account to log in to their service (Penn State uses Box, instead)
- The address linked in the message is not a Dropbox URL, it is in the boxjewelry.ru domain and leads to a fake Dropbox login page
