[SBU Board] Phishing warning

[Monty Gray]

Here’s a recent post on Bridgewinners:

A couple of weeks ago, I got an email addressed to the president of our unit, asking for a check to be sent. It was a fairly good attempt, as these things go: grammatical, spelled correctly, not too odd-looking. However, I was suspicious and I am no longer the president, so I did nothing.
Yesterday, I heard that the treasurer of another unit had gotten a similar email: a request for a check for $3000. She checked with the ACBL, and Joe Jones at ACBL confirmed that unit presidents and treasurers have been getting these emails. Apparently the ACBL is attempting to pass the word but it hadn't reached either of us yet.
 So -- alert to all unit presidents and treasurers, and those who talk to them: Be careful, and verify all your expenses.
