FRAUDULENT UDiON EMAILS & PREVENTION ~

Someone is currently sending out large numbers of spam emails titled “UDiON and one easy way to earn extra money”.

Fraud is very real and rampant on the internet these days. The fraudster is using an email address of @UDiON as the sender address on the email, and UDiON is receiving a very large number of bounced emails. The fraudulent emails are requesting emails to udion@yahoo.com, udion@hotmail.com, udion@gmail.com to, presumably, find personal details. We have requested that Gmail, Yahoo & hotmail take down this account and reported the phishing attempt to them. This notice is to warn any recipient of these emails that they are nothing to do with us and we suggest deleting them immediately. All UDiON volunteers have email accounts that look like this: employeename@udionfoundation.org. If the email address does not include @udionfoundation.org, it is NOT from a UDiON employee.
