The scammers just keep getting bolder and bolder. Today, the Amarillo Police Department received a call from The Nat on 6th, about a scam on social media involving them. Someone had posted on a group page about a party being held at the Nat for Christmas. The poster looks legitimate and provided a phone number, email and QR code to scan. A potential victim had some questions, so they called the actual Nat and that is how the scam was discovered. We have included the poster for the scam event. Please don't pay them any money, and if you already have, please make a police report. www.amarillopolice.org.
This is another reason why we all have to be so careful and double and triple check before paying for something, if you're not sure.
If you have any questions, contact the Amarillo Police PIO/Crime Prevention office at 806-378-4257 or [email protected].
