SCAMS AND FRAUD
Just a reminder to stay vigilant against fraudulent emails and other scams during this pandemic. Scammers often use fear and panic to take advantage of people during times of crisis. Beware of phone calls, suspicious emails, texts, and websites that may look or sound legitimate. Always verify the source is legitimate and do not click any links from unknown senders. If you are unsure about the legitimacy of an email or website, contact your IT company before responding, opening any attachments, or clicking any links.  For more information: https://www.justice.gov/coronavirus
