What's going on?

We have received a warning from MultiSport about an increased risk of spear-phishing emails exploiting their name. As users of Masaryk University who benefit from the MultiSport card, you may become their target.

Attackers are expected to focus on services provided by MultiSport and may, for example, ask you to log in to your My MultiSport account or pay for their services.

Spear-phishing is a social engineering technique where an attacker uses psychological manipulation to obtain sensitive information or access secure systems.

What to do?​​

Just like MultiSport, we ask users to be cautious when receiving any messages regarding their MultiSport account or card in the coming weeks. If you receive a similarly formulated message:

  1. do not respond to the email;
  2. do not click on the attached links;
  3. please report it to our team, ideally including the email header.
