Hi there,
One of our members received an email from This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. when there was no change or modification made to her membership status (purportedly when moving a member to a Former Member status) in our FTH website. This has never happened before and I have asked all of our members to never click on a link in an email without prior confirmation. I have attached a copy of the email received here and wonder if you can please advise if this is a scam email or if the server might have been compromised? 
Thank you Kind RegardsDanny ShafarVP EducationMaccabi Toastmasters Club |No 613630|District 73

This is a new two step process, as explained in the email.
It is sent to a member who has either clicked a link in an email saying that they are no longer a member (genuine case), or if that member has forwarded such an email  to someone else and the second person has mistakenly assumed the question was directed at them, and clicked the link.  
This forces a double confirmation (sent to the affected member), so that members aren't inadvertently moved to the former members list, as has been happening in the past.
In your instance it seems that your member forwarded an email, and the recipient has clicked the link.  No action is required if they are still an active member.
