    PSA and cybersecurity warning...

    If you get any political IM's, emails or text, that you're NOT expecting.
    Do not open, at all, if possible and immediately delete.

    Do NOT click ANY links, picks, buttons, etc.
    These are likely malware and scammers.

    They are taking advantage of the current politics and passion to sucker people into giving info, PII and any $$$.
    Be aware!!! Take caution.

    Simply select and delete...do not even put it into spam or the waste.
    You'll be safer for it.

    My wife has received at least two text messages from some "group?" offering to bring her a voter registration form and help her fill it out.

    Red flag alert!!

    She deleted them without clicking them.
