Fraud Alert

Some of our members received a very realistic looking email supposedly from our Unit president, Liz, asking for money.  We will never ask you by email to send money, buy gift cards (a usual tip-off) or make any other financial transaction.  If you receive such an email do not click on any links and delete it immediately.  If you have a question about an email or other contact, contact a board member or unit contact.

Here is some information for avoiding fraud:

The Palo Alto Bridge Center(PABC) is open!  Enjoy face-to-face bridge!  Vaccinations and masks are not required, however, we encourage people to wear masks if that will make them more comfortable.
