Page 4 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, AugusT 5, 2022 RESNEK | FROM PAGE 3 ies in the country – where students of all colors and nationalities go on to college and beyond – because they came from Everett’s school system, which worked for the students, not for the superintendent and her out-of-town lackeys. Look around. Why are so many families – people of color – have been coming from Boston and beyond to Everett for decades? But that’s not what this superintendent cares about. It’s all about her career and where she goes from here after her photo op with the bullhorn at City Hall. How much does she care about Everett students? She let the students walk out of class and march to City Hall from Glendale Square holding signs demanding that all the councillors and mayor resign – based on what? A city councillor who had already resigned over hateful emails and texts – some of which were shared by their favorite City Clerk, Sergio Cornelio, the former city councillor’s best friend. Nothing to see here, folks. And the security cameras in the administration’s Vine Street office that she claimed were meant for her – which she used to make a claim for a federal probe by citing racism, discrimination and retaliation to the U.S. Attorney’s office – the claim has gone nowhere – except in the pages of the lyin’ Leader Herald. Nothing but “BS,” as Resnek answered under oath to the attorney in his many depositions, describing all his stories. The cameras in her office were set up many years ago to catch someone using the computer without permission – and were disconnected the day after they were set up – many years ago. It’s all on record, as the supt. knows. But why would the truth ever get in the way of the mission? It’s all about their goal: Destroy the mayor and take over Everett. What a group!

Thank God the truth is the cure. They’re not fooling anyone. The Better Business Bureau says scammers are using QR codes to carry out various schemes T he use and consumer familiarity with quick response (QR) codes present an opportunity for businesses to direct current or potential customers to their websites, mobile apps, digital marketplaces or anything else available on the internet. Restaurants often use them to allow their diners to access a digital menu, preventing the spread of contagions and saving the business money. Business cards can include a QR code that will direct to an online portfolio, complete with videos and more in-depth information about the services offered than what a standard business card can display. There are many legitimate and helpful uses for QR codes. MCGONAGLE | FROM PAGE 1 ects. The needs of Everett today are different than they were ten years ago and will be ten years from now. I promise to rise to this challenge. Since my inauguration in 2015, I have gained much valuable experience on Beacon Hill, serving on several committees and this past session being named a Chairman, an accomplishment I am very proud of. In this role, I dealt with many of the issues surrounding COVID-19 in the Commonwealth and the safety of State House employees, earning the respect and trust from my colleagues and peers.

However, scammers are also taking note of the technology and using QR codes to carry out various schemes. Consumer reports to the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and warnings issued by police departments in cities across the nation detail how some QR codes direct users to phishing websites, fraudulent payment portals, and downloads that infect devices with viruses or malware. While the way victims are exposed to QR code fraud varies, a common theme identified in reports is that most come from unsolicited communications or a QR code posted in a publicly accessible location.

This past session, we passed major legislation that will benefit the Commonwealth and Everett especially. I look forward to serving for many more years and continuing to create the kinds of laws that will serve future generations of Massachusetts. So, in closing, I ask for your support by honoring me with one of the most important privileges any citizen can give, your vote on election day September 6th . Thank you for allowing me to work on your behalf. Sincerely, State Representative Joe McGonagle Summer is Here!
