Jan 22, 2020 - Phishing Scam
Please be aware that there is an fake email going out that looks like it is from Alberta Health Services.  The email subject line is "Upcoming Procedure Information" and asks the recipient to log in to MyChart to update their information. 
If you get a similar email, please proceed with caution. 
If you get a suspicious email or a text message that asks you to click on a link or open an attachment,
ask yourself this question "Do I have an account with the company or know the person that contacted me?"
If the answer is "No", it could be a phishing scam. 
If the answer is "Yes," contact the company using a phone number or website you know is real - NOT the information in the email. 
Do not click on attachments and links, as they can install harmful malware.
