Police warning public of masking hoax

Published

on

The Massachusetts State Police are warning the public after a masking hoax has come to their attention.

“We have recently become aware of hoax callers masking calls with State Police and other police agency phone numbers, meaning the hoax call would show a police department phone number on your caller ID. If you receive a call like this, please do not give any personal, financial, or sensitive information over the phone. Hang up and report it to your local police department.”

Scammers continue to come out and prey on the public with new scams and recycling old ones. Protect yourself and warn those that you know.
