ALT Cybersecurity awareness graphic asking, “Real or AI? One of these emails is a scam. Can you spot it?” Two sample bank emails are shown. Email A is a routine notice that a monthly statement is ready to view. Email B claims an unusual sign-in was detected and urges the recipient to verify their identity within two hours by clicking a “Verify now” button. New Mexico Office of Cybersecurity and Department of Information Technology logos appear at the bottom with the text “Swipe for the answer.”

ALT Cybersecurity awareness graphic revealing that Email B is the scam. The graphic highlights three warning signs: a look-alike sender address, “Security@yourbank-alerts.co,” pressure to act quickly with a two-hour deadline, and a verification button that directs users to click a link instead of logging in through their bank’s official app or website. The headline reads, “It’s B. AI wrote it clean, but the clues are still there.” New Mexico Office of Cybersecurity and Department of Information Technology logos appear at the bottom.
