Please be aware that Rotary Club and District officials will never ask you to purchase gift cards via email or text, especially in an unexpected or secret request with instructions to call and verify. Rotary members should continue to exercise caution: Disregard any suspicious message that offers money, requests money, or asks for your personal information. Avoid opening attachments or following links in suspicious messages
Please also take extra care to verify any bank transfer details, donation requests, and other transactions.
 
If you notice that an email has come from a slightly incorrect version of an email address with an extra letter or punctuation, report that address as spam in your email system. Please do not forward any emails with suspicious links to others. You can also report these to www.scamwatch.gov.au
 
This is an issue affecting many areas of our communities, especially coming into the busy holiday season. Please look after yourselves, and don't hesitate to contact your Club or District leadership if you have any concerns.
