We sent a cease and desist letter to them as they had a ‘connection’ to our LMS, they then replied on who the correct contact would be to initiate this connection. We are not addressing the collaboration or the unsolicited emails. ———— Alex Waitkus Security Analyst, Lead Information Security Services Georgia State University awaitkus () gsu edu security () gsu edu Phone 404.413.4377 Security 404.413.4524 http://technology.gsu.edu/technology-services/it-services/security/ On Oct 7, 2014, at 1:12 PM, Alex Jalso <ACJalso () MAIL WVU EDU> wrote:
Hello Everyone, Has anyone dealt with the site http://getstudyroom.com, also goes by the name StudyRoom. It’s a social networking type of site promoting to students the ability to work together on class assignment. What WVU is experiencing is that when students sign up on this site that there’s an increase in unsolicited e-mail to students from the @getstudyroom.com domain. It’s also thought that StudyRoom uses students’ login credentials to attempt access to other university sites. Thanks.
