<p>Dear MASTA members,</p>
<p>Some members have been receiving spam messages that are designed
to appear as if they are coming from me. Below is an example of
the message.</p>
<p>I always email from my umich account, and I only email you about
MASTA-related items. If you receive a strange or suspicious
message that supposedly is from me, please check the email
address. If it is not from me, please delete and do not respond so
you don't get hacked. </p>
<p>Thanks,</p>
<p>Michael</p>
<p>----</p>
<p>Sample spam message:</p>
<p>I hope t you are staying safe and healthy during this time of
chaos, Actually i need your assistance on a task and I am not
available to do that myself due to some urgent family problems,</p>
<p>I’d really appreciate if you could email me back as soon as you
can.</p>
<p>Also have you gotten any vaccination yet?</p>
<p><br>
Best Regards<br>
Michael Hopkins</p>
