Scam Alert
A report was made in another County where the complainant received a call and her caller ID showed the call coming from “911”. The caller advised the complainant that her husband had been involved in an injury accident and started to ask for personal information. The complainant contacted that family member and discovered they were fine.
If this ever happens to you, please remember:
•If you get a call from the police department, your caller ID will now show up as 9-1-1
•The only time that the digits 911 will show up as an incoming communication will be via a text message (i.e. Text to 9-1-1). This text will almost always be initiated by you.
•NEVER give your social security, credit card, or insurance information over the phone
If you think you have been scammed or someone has attempted to scam you in this manner, please contact the Huron Township Police Department at 734-753-4400 or the Michigan State Police Cyber Crimes Unit at 1-877-MI-CYBER (1-877-642-9237) or email the Michigan Cyber Command Center Center (MC3): MC#@michigan.gov
