Some folks have been receiving an email that appears to be from the rector, but it is not. Do not click or hit reply; delete it. It begins with something like “Where are you? I need a favour.”
If in doubt, check the email address from which the message has been sent. If it’s not from frhumphrey@stthomas.on.ca, it is not from the rector. Fr. Humphrey will never ask you to contribute gift cards via email.
There is no need to inform Fr. Humphrey of these emails, as he has no control over who tries to impersonate him, and his own email account has not been hacked or otherwise compromised.
