🚨 KOA Owners: A Quick Cybersecurity Reminder 🚨
We've recently heard from several members who have received emails that appear to come from fellow campground owners, OA leaders, or board members—but aren't actually from them.
This practice is called email spoofing, and unfortunately it's becoming more common. Scammers use a familiar name to gain trust, then ask for money, gift cards, wire transfers, or other urgent favors.
Before you respond to any unexpected request, take a moment to verify the sender's actual email address—not just the display name. A quick phone call or separate email can save a lot of headaches.
Take a look at the graphic below for a few easy ways to spot a spoofed email and help protect yourself, your campground, and our KOA community.
