'Rat scam alert

[barretcreek]

Been getting tons of emails pretending to be from GOP candidates. All are 'Rat scams which give a small portion of the funds raised to the named GOP candidate, thereby avoiding being frauds.

Check out the candidate's house.gov/senate.gov site if they are an incumbent. Or the email address from the solicitation. One is nrcced.com, a fraud.

not received one of those yet,

but have been getting a lot of spam texts on the phone

If you get political emails asking for $$, cut and paste the sender's address and put it into a search engine. Many will come back as 'unsafe' or similar.

A little off topical... but I saw today where the U.S. Postal Union has endorsed Biden. Who do you think is going to be handling the mail in ballots?

Trump can't talk Post Office without bringing up Jeff Bezos, leaving some to wonder if he would just let it go down the tubes to spite Amazon. With mail-in balloting foul-ups being an added bonus.
