Fake phishing

My employer regularly sends out false phishing e-mails, in order to educate us and create awareness.

They have outsourced the task to a company using a platform for this, called Lucy.

This morning I received another one of these faked phishing attempts, and had to laugh about this note at the bottom of the e-mail, written in tiny letters:

Please note that the third-party logos and trademarks used in this email or landing page are used for illustrative or instructional purposes only and there is no connection or relationship between the trademark owner and Lucy Security or the LUCY Security customer.

Apparently there's a legal problem in sending out e-mail pretending to be entities you're not.
