Protect yourself from email scams
Date published:

RACP has security systems in place to monitor all emails sent to and from the College. However, RACP cannot control emails originating from external systems such as Google and Yahoo, and email scams are becoming increasingly prevalent.
A common tactic involves impersonating senior executives such as the CEO, President, and Board members. Since senior management names are frequently featured in media and company websites as part of business activities and events, they often become convenient targets for impersonation.
We recommend you check the email address of the sender. If it does not end in 'racp.edu.au' or 'racp.org.nz' it is not likely to be from an RACP staff member or representative.
