Warning: If you receive an email or text from Reverend Walk Jones of the First Presbyterian Church in Ocala requesting immediate assistance, it’s likely a scam!

Reverend Jones’s account was hacked, and at least one member of our church has received a fraudulent request. Reverend Jones has confirmed it as spam; he is not seeking emergency help. This form of scam is circulating widely, so please exercise caution and verify any requests for assistance before providing any monetary support.”
