SCAMS - BEWARE

Recently some residents have received calls related to:

  • COVID 19 Vaccination. Do not give out personal or financial information. Ignore any vaccine offers to get put on a list or offer you to pay now to get vaccine early. These are scams and do not give out any information. Hang up and do not engage.
  • Phone messages that IRS is opening a claim for money that you owe or similar wording. Please do not give any personal information to the caller especially not Social Security or bank account information, credit card numbers or verify date of birth over the phone; or to people you do not know, that show up at your door.  Never say yes, or your name, or give any identifying information on robocalls. Hang up stay silent or answer no, as voices are recorded and then information is used to hack accounts.  Prepaid cards and Western Union are other avenues scammers use so just hang up if you get one of those calls.
