E-mail scams targeting Rotarians
Rotary International continues to receive notice of e-mail phishing scams targeting Rotarians.
One such scam claims that the recipient has been selected in a raffle for a prize and the recipient's contact information is needed. Another scam still circulating claims that a deceased Rotarian has left money to the e-mail recipient to be donated to philanthropic efforts. The sender, who claims to be the executor of the will, then asks for the recipient's personal information, including a copy of the individual's passport and driver's license, in order to claim the inheritance.

Last week our club received the following request from Lila de Klaver of District 7300
:
"I am spearheading a 14 day drive to gather the camping essentials that many kids from the city (many Collegiate YMCA has referred are resettled refugees) may not be able to rustle up."
Our club responded in our usual way, let's help. So, we sent the following items to Lila:
- 150 - Show Caps
- 150 - Hotel style Sampoo
- 100 - Motel style Bath Soaps
- 100 - Motel style Facial Soaps
A big thanks goes out to our member Don Friedman, for spearheading this project.
HAVE FUN KIDS!
