PHONE SCAM ALERT – don’t be fooled by big prizes

There have been several reports over the past weekend that PHONE SCAMS have started. The caller says you’ve been selected to win prizes ($1 million, a new car, a vacation cruise etc.) if you simply buy a local gift card for $5-10 and call them back with the gift card number.  These calls are coming in on landlines and cell phones throughout the area. 

THIS IS A SCAM.  D0 not engage in conversation, JUST HANG UP!  Although the calls are coming in to all numbers, seniors are most vulnerable to these calls.  Alert the seniors in your life!
