The Stillwater Police Department is warning local businesses about an alarming trend involving scammers who are impersonating law enforcement officers over the phone. These fraudulent individuals are contacting businesses, claiming to be from the police department, and attempting to extract sensitive information or money.
Authorities emphasize that legitimate law enforcement agencies will never demand payment or personal information over the phone. The scammers often use high-pressure tactics, creating a sense of urgency to manipulate their targets into compliance. This tactic can leave business owners feeling threatened and confused.
The police department urges all business owners to remain vigilant and to verify the identity of anyone claiming to be a law enforcement officer. If approached by such individuals, it is recommended to hang up and contact the police department directly using official contact numbers to confirm any claims made.
By staying informed and cautious, businesses can protect themselves from falling victim to these deceptive schemes.
