Wednesday, November 29th
11:23 AM A male subject came to the Safety Building to report fraud. He fell victim to a common scam claiming that he had won a substantial amount of money. He was told that he could not receive the money until he paid the taxes, insurance and other administration fees. Once the male subject began sending money, several different scammers began to call him. They explained that there were issues getting the money to him and they used this as an excuse to get the male to send more money. The incident began in September 2017. The male subject did not want to disclose the amount of money that he had already sent. Based on previous law enforcement experience, it will be nearly impossible to get a subject’s money back.
