Spam Alert - "Follow Up" and "Request" emails are not from Mark McCoy and should be marked as spam

There have been reports from people who've received email with a subject of "Follow Up" and "Request", and these emails are not from Mark McCoy. 
    Please be on the alert for these emails and pay close attention to the sender's address before taking any action that a message might direct you to take. If the message looks suspicious, it probably is suspicious!


If you get a suspicious email like this, mark it as phishing or spam in your email box so Google can add this to their filters. Here's how:
    Select the suspicious email in your mailbox, then click Report spam to remove it from your account and to report it to Google. When you do this, you may be given two option
    1. Report spam <-- Choose this option - CHOOSE OPTION 1
    2. Unsubscribe and report spam <-- Do NOT choose this option
