SCAM ALERT - Our National Organization has reported the following:   "It has been brought to our attention that some Posts are being contacted by a fraudulent company going by the name of "Microsoft Tech Support" claiming that the Posts' computer has a virus and that "they" can fix the issue.  This is a scam; Microsoft does not contact its customers to notify them of a virus. Please do not give these individuals any information.   Click here for a list of common scams related to the Microsoft name. The "Tech Support" scam is number one on the list.   Please be advised and spread the word to your Posts and members.
