Warning: Recently, some CS members and friends/colleagues have received a spam/spoofing email pretending to be the IEEE-CS President from an unknown account, “boardpresident8070 [at] gmail.com” (or other malicious accounts), stating “a matter related to ICS” (or something else), which is a completely meaningless, non-existent thing. Unfortunately, we have seen this kind of spam/spoofing almost every year. It is typical spam/spoofing, and don’t reply to them. Note that I, as the CS president, use the University’s official email address only.
