SCAM/SPOOFING ALERT

scam alert
 
Knightdale Police Department has received several reports of citizens getting calls from phone numbers with KPD caller ID requesting personal and private information, sending warnings of missed jury duty, and other scamming/spoofing-related messages. No entity from the Town of Knightdale, including the Fire and Police departments, will EVER call and ask you for requests or private information. Do NOT give out any personal or banking information, and DO NOT send any money.
 
If you happen to fall victim to a scam, contact local law enforcement through non-emergency dispatch to make a police report. Also, contact your bank and inform them of the scam, and check with the three major credit bureaus [Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion] to see if new lines of credit have shown up or if someone is using your identity to make purchases.
 
PLEASE share this with your #KnightdaleKneighbors and friends.
