9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices;
my flesh also dwells secure.
10 For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol,
or let your holy one see corruption.
11 You make known to me the path of life;
in your presence there is fullness of joy;
at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
Psalm 16:9-11

Beware of Phisihing Emails
Please be aware that phishing emails, which are fake emails designed to steal personal information, are increasingly using the names of your friends and family to gain your trust. These emails may appear to be from someone you know, but they are actually from scammers. Please be cautious and never share personal information, like passwords or bank details, in response to unsolicited emails, even if they seem to be from someone you know.
Here's how to spot a phishing email:
- Check the Email Address:
Scammers often use slightly different email addresses that look similar to your friend’s but are actually different.
- Look for Poor Grammar or Spelling:
Phishing emails often have errors that wouldn't be found in a legitimate email from a friend.
- Be Suspicious of Urgent Requests:
If an email asks you to act quickly or click a link, be wary. Legitimate people won't pressure you to take action immediately.
- Don't Click Links or Open Attachments from Unknown Sources:
Phishing emails often contain malicious links or attachments that can harm your computer or steal your information.
- If You Suspect a Phishing Email, Contact the Sender Directly:
Call your friend or family member to verify the email's authenticity, rather than responding to the email itself.
- Report Suspicious Emails:
Forward suspicious emails to your email provider.
Remember, it's always better to be safe than sorry. If you receive an email that seems suspicious, don't respond, and contact the sender directly to verify its legitimacy.
