Be aware of new non-University-sponsored retirement messages

Some employees reported receiving an email from an individual at North Carolina Retirement Experts with the subject line “Customized retirement planning meeting for UNC Charlotte staff” indicating eligibility to receive a free consultation for retirement benefits. This email is not an approved communication from a legitimate vendor associated with the UNC Charlotte Benefits Office.

Employees are advised to not reach out or provide information to them.

As a reminder, if you receive suspicious emails, report them to OneIT. Do not send a reply, click on a link or open any attachments. Forward the email to spam@charlotte.edu, and OneIT will investigate.
