Scam Alert: Emails From Linda
Another round of scam emails are being sent out by people pretending to be the DSs in the conference. If you receive a generic email in Linda's name asking for help with an unspecified task or project, please do not respond.
As a reminder, below are some tips we've previously sent out for helping to spot scam or phishing emails.
-
Neither Linda nor myself will ever ask you to buy gift cards on our behalf. If you get this request, do not respond. It is a scam.
-
Emails from Linda and I will only come from our official @moumethodist.org account. The only exception to that are emails, like this one, that come from our email service and the [email protected] email address. If you get an email from a Gmail account or any other service, do not respond. It is likely a scam.

When in doubt, or if you have any questions on an email you received, please call the office at 636-891-8004 ext. 21 or Linda directly at 314-583-7251 to double check the authenticity of the email you received.
