Michael Harnishfeger, Ada police chief, issues a scam warning today on the Ada Police Facebook.
He wrote that while reviewing several cases that have come into the police department he noticed that several residents have fallen victim to online or phone scams.
Here’s the police department's advice to residents:
It seems like every day I receive one or two phone calls that start by asking me to "please do not hang up." This is my instant cue to hang up.
I have found that hanging up on any, even remotely, suspicious call is the best way to keep my information safe and protect myself from identity theft.
