Manor Independent School District

Manor Independent School District is out of $2.3 million from a phishing scam.

The phishing email was sent to multiple people in the school district and it was a single person that responded.

The money was sent through three separate transactions.

Whoever paid didn’t realize the bank account information was changed and it was being sent to a fake bank.
