Not all emails from Donovan are from Donovan...

We have had another round of emails from "Donovan" asking you to respond. Please look at the email address it is sent from. Please look at what the ask is. Please be mindful that if Donovan wants something from you, he will show up at your house. These are all indications that it is not an authentic email request.

We want everyone to be aware of the email scams that are circling again.
