This discussion is important to me because I use the exact same arguments as
you do.
Since I work under the supervision of people, I need to be careful not to
upset them. And, yes, I have explained time and time again how easy it is
to fake a message and how serious the consequences can be. I have seen
hoaxes, trust me.
Oddly enough, many people think that a 4-liner of text with the name of the
department and contact details are genuine and reliable.
