We have been seeing an increase in scam emails in recent days. These emails are coming from email addresses that look very similar to members addresses and are being sent as personalized email. They are describing specific situations that are meant to tug at your heartstrings while often giving a reason why they cannot speak on the phone.
These scammers are very good at what they do. Please DO NOT buy giftcards, send money or anything of this nature to anyone who is emailing you and asking for it. No one associated with Vancouver Unitarians will ask you to do anything like this. It is good practice as a general rule to apply this to all your interactions.
