AI Generated Phishing Emails eLearning Course

Course Overview

AI-Generated Phishing Emails explains how artificial intelligence has changed the way phishing attacks are created and why these emails are harder to spot. It focuses on recognising AI-generated phishing tactics and understanding how they are used to target individuals and organisations.

This course explores AI-GENERATED PHISHING EMAILS by examining how modern phishing messages use perfect language, personalisation, and current events to appear legitimate. It explains how to recognise warning signs, including unexpected requests, subtle inconsistencies, suspicious sender details, and artificial urgency.

The course looks at how AI exploits emotions and timing, such as sending messages when attention is divided or using fear and flattery to prompt quick responses. It also covers practical steps to reduce risk, including verifying requests through other channels, avoiding email links, using two-factor authentication, and reporting suspicious messages to security teams.
