US-CERT is aware of suspicious domain names that may be used in phishing campaigns masquerading as official 
communication from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) or the identity protection firm CSID. Https://opm.csid.com  
[ https://opm.csid.com ]is the legitimate domain used by CSID, which is responsible for identity protection services 
for those affected by the recent data breach.

US-CERT recommends that users visit the OPM website [ http://www.opm.gov/news/latest-news/announcements/ ] for more 
information. Users are also encouraged to read US-CERT's guidance [ https://www.us-cert.gov/ncas/tips/ST04-014 ] on 
avoiding social engineering and phishing attacks and report suspicious emails [ https://www.us-cert.gov/report-phishing
