[MASTA] Warning of Spam impersonation

[Michael Hopkins]

Dear MASTA members,

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.

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.

Thanks,

Michael

Sample spam message:

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,

I’d really appreciate if you could email me back as soon as you can.

Also have you gotten any vaccination yet?


Best Regards
Michael Hopkins
