Reports say incoming calls from scammers sometimes appear to be from a State Police phone number.
The New York State Police department is warning the public about an ongoing phone spoofing scam in which scammers impersonate members of law enforcement or government agencies to solicit sensitive personal information. The State Police reports that in recent days, individuals have reported receiving phone calls from numbers that appear to be legitimate New York State Police phone lines. Callers falsely claiming to be law enforcement officials have demanded personal information and have threatened punitive action against recipients who refuse to comply. Anyone who gets a call like this is urged to report it.
