OFFENSE: Scam Phone Calls
CASE #: 2019-2602
A resident of Cortland, Nebraska contacted a Gage County Sheriffs’ Office investigator to inform him she had received numerous scam phone calls from 617-932-0259, some were automated “robo calls”, but she has spoken with actual persons, a female on one occasion and a male and female on another occasion. They try to cozen her into paying for items they claim she has ordered, but did not order. She has not lost any money and was advised to contact her local financial institution to help monitor her accounts.
She was aware the callers were attempting to defraud her and did not give out any personal, financial, or confidential information and informed the investigator the callers had little to no personal information on her.
If you are contacted by telephone, mail, e-mail, or in person and believe the situation involves fraud or other chicanery, do not give out any personal, financial, or confidential information and contact your local police department or call the Gage County Sheriff’s Office and ask to speak with an investigator.
