Dear Friends,
We regret to inform you that someone is impersonating Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, our founder and president, on Twitter and is trying to solicit donations by using Imam's name.
BE WARNED: Do not reply to any communication from the Twitter handle @feisalabdulrauf. This is a fraudulent account, which has copied the profile information and posts of Imam Feisal's real Twitter account, which is @ImamFeisal. Also, be aware that the scammer is requesting to speak on the telephone. Do not engage in conversation with anyone from this source of communication.
We have reported this false account to Twitter and we're awaiting action on their part. As social media has expanded the opportunity for criminals to exploit the identities of others, be on alert that this effort might be duplicated on Facebook or with another fraudulent Twitter account.
Neither Imam Feisal nor Cordoba House solicit money via online platforms such as Twitter and Facebook. The official social media accounts for Imam Feisal and Cordoba House are:
If you have any questions about this, or if you have been contacted by an account posing as Imam Feisal or Cordoba House, please contact me immediately at ng@cordobahouse.com. You can also call our office during regular business hours at 212-870-2552 x 1.
With Warm Salaams,
Naz Ahmed Georgas,
Executive Director
