It has come to our attention that spam emails, purportedly sent from Bar President Richard D'addario, have been circulated to several members of the Bar. If you receive an email from the president of the Bar or other members of the Bar that you were not expecting and which come from a strange email address, please do not respond to the email or click on any links; delete the email immediately. The scams work by impersonation of a well-known name within an organization or even by using names of colleagues.
The recent scam emails ask the person receiving the email if they are "free at the moment." When the receiver responds, the scammer asks the receiver to procure several gift cards for the sender as a favor. Please be advised that the president of the Bar Association would never send emails of this nature to members.
