Update from the MCA Board |
Assalamu Alaikum, Please Note: A member of our community was just scammed by someone pretending to be from MCA. Please remember: do not click on any links that are not credible or recognized sites , and do not tell anyone a “code” who sends you one. MCA will not be calling you to ask for any codes. Overall, WhatsApp is known for being prone to scams. If you have to stay on, be very careful of scams and enable two-factor verification. Go to settings, then account, to enable it. |
