Scam Alert: Fake Gift Card Requests

Did you get an email or text from a ScreenSask board member or staff person asking for your help buying gift cards, or otherwise asking you to send them money or buy things?

It’s a fake.

ScreenSask’s board and staff will never ask anyone for money in this way.

Email and text scams are becoming increasingly sophisticated, and you may be very easily led to believe that this request is real.

You may also have received an email purporting to sell you our membership list, or the membership list of another organization. This is also a scam. We would never sell our list or membership information to others.

Always check the email address that the message comes from. We only send emails from screensask.com addresses.

Please read this information sheet from the Government of Canada to ensure you are fully aware of how to avoid scams this holiday season: https://antifraudcentre-centreantifraude.ca/index-eng.htmhttps://antifraudcentre-centreantifraude.ca/index-eng.htm
