Malicious E-mail

Because our campaign is a small, grassroots effort, we have been using a free e-mail service to interact with our volunteers. Recently our campaign e-mail was attacked by a malicious piece of spam mailer software that hijacked our address book and sent suspicious messages asking people to join what appears to be a social networking site. I am in no way affiliated with this company, and did not authorize them to use my campaign's name or e-mail addresses. The campaign is looking into the matter, and are taking steps to improve the safety and security of our campaign communications.

If you received one of these messages, please accept my apologies and do not click on any of the links, not even the “unsubscribe” button. You can set your e-mail program to permanently block all mail from tagged.com and taggedmail.com. If you need help doing this, please contact me at stacyhiga4mayor@yahooo.com and a volunteer will assist you.
