Dear Community Partner,
Each year, tens of thousands of people fall victim to telephone scams, resulting in individual losses to those victims ranging from a few dollars to their life's savings. Usually, in common schemes, the scammer will call a victim and fraudulently assert that they are with a law enforcement agency and that the person owes a large sum of money that is due immediately. They will tell the victim that an arrest warrant will be filed and the person will go to jail unless payment requirements are met. The scammer will direct the victim to a local retail establishment and instruct them to purchase pre-paid gift cards (iTunes, Google Play, Green Dot Visa, etc.). The victim is then directed to provide the phony "agent" with the gift card number(s) within minutes after the card's activation. If the scam is successful, they will try to get the victim to repeat the process at several stores, purchasing more gift cards. Once the gift card numbers are given to the scammer, the gift card loses its value and the victim suffers the loss.
Common victims of this scam are elderly and special needs people in our community who don't realize that they're falling prey to fraud until it's much too late.
We need your help!
Help your local police department in combatting this plague of fraud by fighting it off at the front lines - your point of sale! Help us by educating your employees and, where possible, creating store policies that encourage your staff to talk to your customers about their reason for the purchasing the gift cards. It's good customer service and great for community relations!
Some signs to looks for:
Anxious shopper, possibly on his/her cell phone while buying gift cards,
- Multiple sales of high-value gift cards in one transaction,
- A customer purchasing several gift cards over multiple sales in one day.
If your employees recognize a potential victim, call us at (610) 777-9595 before processing the sale of the gift cards and help us to stop the fraud before it's too late.
If you have any questions, or would like any further information. Please feel free to contact any member of our police department.
With Our Appreciation,
Cumru Township Police Department
