Curious, John opened the email and clicked on the link provided. The link led him to a webpage with a simple login form. He entered his username and the password he thought was correct, but it didn't work.
As he sat there, trying to remember the complex combination of letters and numbers, he received an email from the IT department. The subject line read: "autocom 202023 password installation link".
