Please be aware of any scam emails that may look like they are coming from David Lane, other District office staff, or even your own church office staff.

Here are some things to keep in mind if you're wondering if an email is legitimate.

Fraudulent emails will typically end in, but are not limited to, "yahoo.com", "gmail.com". District emails will end in "cdcma.org".
These emails will demand secrecy, they don't want you to call the office or person to confirm.
They request that you purchase something and/or send them money.

We will never ask you to make purchases for the Central District without speaking to you first.
You should always consult with the person asking for the purchase and/or money in a format other than email.

What should you do if you receive an email that you believe is fraudulent? Delete it. There is no further action to take. If you aren’t sure and would like to check an email’s validity, please call our office.

If you ever receive an email that you believe is fraudulent and it contains “cdcma.org”, call our office IMMEDIATELY! This would be a breach that we would need to address right away.

Please share this information with your church as we are seeing more and more email scams coming from people posing as one of our district pastors, church staff, and/or elders.

Thank you for your continued vigilance in this area.
