Scammers call from a “spoofed” city number, beginning with 210-207... and claim the victim is under investigation, police said.
The victim is then asked for payment by sending money to their account to “resolve the fake investigation,” SAPD said.
The police department is urging people not to fall victim to this scam and said they don’t call citizens and demand payment over the phone or through a money transfer.
If you fall victim to this scam, contact SAPD’s non-emergency number at 210-207-7273.
