Dear SDRC Student,
During spring break we received an email from someone we thought was a
psychology professor at UC Riverside who was seeking research assistance.
In good faith, SDRC staff forwarded this to potentially interested
students. However, while the professor was real, we just were alerted that
the email was not. The professor did not send the email, which turned out
to be a scam. We are notifying you out of awareness.
For more information about phishing scams, please see this website from UCR

Our goal is to provide SDRC students with trusted information and
resources. We regret this happened and will ensure better screening of
emails that are forwarded to you.
Sincerely,
