We have reports of a new scam going around claiming to be Ted. Please hover over the email to make sure it is from an @asburyfirst.org email account. The Asbury First staff will never ask you to send cash immediately or to give your personal information over an open email.

Here are a few guidelines to recognize scam/phishing emails or texts:

• Be suspicious of urgent demands for information

Often spoofed e-mails will make some form of urgent request.

• Look for misspelled words or grammatical errors in the message or link

• Avoid e-mailing personal or financial information

• Be watchful of general greetings

• Contact Asbury First directly to verify the request before responding.

Staff will only contact you using official email addresses. For more information, please contact David Strong at dstrong@asburyfirst.org
