Unfortunately, during times such as these, individuals try to take advantage of folks. With a lot of people working from home and relying on computers and checking updates on the situation, please be careful what you are clicking and opening. Phishing emails pertaining to the virus look very real and even appear to come from the Center for Disease Control. If you did not sign up for alerts, do not open these emails.
Also, do not download the Johns Hopkins virus update map from any location other than the real John Hopkins website as it has been cloned and is being used to infect systems with malware.
Please also be diligent in researching any group or organization that you are planning to give money to to help a various cause.
Feel free to reach out to our Police Department if you have questions or have fallen victim to a scam.
