Scam Email Warning
A number of members have received an email in the last few days beginning with the words:
One of our member is in dire need of the entire Dexter Cattle Society help and it will really be appreciated if we all can join hands together and save his son. A fundraising campaign has been created and we are counting on everyone’s support.
This email is obviously a scam and has not come from the Dexter Cattle Society. We only use the email address secretary@dextercattle.co.uk
Members’ contact details are shown on the Society website, Herdbook and other Society administration as agreed on the GDPR form
