[Diana1]

I’m sorry, I just had my HD replaced and am in the process of re-configuring my laptop.
What is this about?

Hi Jorge,
What is the appropriate action to take when one is made aware that their Email has been spoofed to others? This Email was so suspicious cause Denise does not write like that so I trashed it, but did not know if I was supposed to notify you or the communications members or National. They all have the Leaders addresses. We all just have to be vigilent and hope for the best.
Be safe.
Judy H.

>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.
