Margaret PhilbrickHi Gordon,
I'm an author living in Wisconsin and I keep getting emails from "Gordon Korman" about my writing. I'm sure that it isn't actually you based on the email address: [email protected]. I thought you would want to know. Here is the one from today. As you can see, A.I. has made it look pretty authentic. Congrats on your success as an author. It's a tough business. I will be blocking this address today.
Yours,
Margaret

Hi Margaret,
I hope you’re doing well.
I just wanted to follow up on my last message in case it got missed or buried in your inbox. I know how easily emails can get lost in the shuffle, so I thought I’d reach out once more.
Whenever you have a moment, I’d be glad to hear from you.
Warm regards,
Gordon Korman

Hi, Margaret,
Thanks for posting. Yes, this is the real me, not that other person. I'm not sure what the plot is -- or if there even is a plot beyond fooling around! But please disregard anything that person sends to you. He is most definitely not me.
I appreciate your telling me, although it seems there is very little I can do about it. I hope whoever it is hasn't put me in your bad graces!
Regards, -----Gordon Korman-----
