[NFBF-L] [NFBF-Leaders] Gift card scam

[Jorge Hernandez]

Good morning Federationists

Please be aware of the scan Emails asking for gift cards which asks you to purchase a large number of cards totaling large monetary value and then providing a picture of the code on the back of the card.

This is a scam.  If you see an Email asking for an Apple Card Gift or Amazon Card from anyone, please delete it and do not reply or purchase any gift cards.

It is best practice to call the person who you received the Email from and let them know that you have received such Email so they can be aware that their Email is being spooked and they can take appropriate actions.

If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me via Email through this threat.  Make sure you reply to all so everyone is receiving the proper information.


Together
Jorge Hernandez, President
Miami-Dade Chapter
Board of Directors
National Federation of the blind of Florida
