Warning: Technical Communicator(s) Asked for Personal Information
Chapter leaders should be aware that a male who identified himself as “Brian” and indicated that he was with STC called at least one technical communicator (a former STC member) in the San Jose, California, area around the end of December. The caller asked the technical communicator he contacted for personal information.
The caller’s phone number was blocked, and the caller hung up upon the technical communicator’s refusal to give this personal information. We wanted to make chapter leaders cognizant of this occurrence.
If you are contacted by this caller, STC recommends that you do not share your personal information.
