Psychologists: beware of hoax email

08 Feb 2018

Psychologists are warned that a hoax email is being sent which pretends to be from AHPRA.

The email, targeting some registered psychologists, is sent from noreply@psychologyboard.gov.au.

The phishing campaign appears to be directly related to previous campaigns targeting psychologists in Australia in 2016 and 2017.
