[Lekooks] Phone scam alert

[Joanne Nelson]

Thanks for sending this Claire. I know we've all heard about the email scams with our ministers, but the text one is new! I also got this today and also blocked the number...although I think it is easy for scammers to use a variety of numbers. (In general I've been getting several scam texts daily the last few weeks)

I just received a text from an unknown number claiming to be Rev. Matt and asking me to text back.  I know that this is not his number, so I promptly blocked it and deleted the text.
If you receive a text from this number: (828) 483-0977 DO NOT ANSWER OR REPLY TO IT.  DELETE AND BLOCK IMMEDIATELY.
This is a scammer!  It is not Rev. Matt even though it may seem like it's from him.  They're getting more clever these days.
