The Scammers are at it again!

Dear Zion Friends,
Unfortunately, once again fake text messages and emails have been circulating to Zion members ... the messages appear to come from "Rev. Dr. Grimenstein or Rev. Edward" and request the recipient to "reply as soon as you get this, there is something I want to discuss with you." If they receive a response, then they request money or gift cards. THESE MESSAGES ARE A SCAM. PLEASE DO NOT RESPOND TO THEM!

Pastor Grimenstein will NEVER ask for gift cards. You can verify that a text is fake by looking at the phone number it is sent from ... most fake texts are not even from our local area code!

Any legitimate text from Pastor will come from his cell number 412-523-7896.
