The thing is, there were some hints in the email it wasn't legit, like bad sender or weird links. That was the test. That the employer is bad too, doesn't change the fact the employee fell for the bait.

Fair enough. It would be nice to actually see the email.

Some people, when they can, automatically filter the phphishing emails out based on mail server IIRC :)
