❗️ - Gloucester Township Police, the FBI, or any Law Enforcement Agency DOES NOT call on the phone, demanding money- even if your caller ID shows GTPD's or another agency's phone number (spoofing).
❗️ ONLY SCAMMERS demand money over the phone, REAL police and federal agents come to your door in person with warrants or to investigate an incident.
❗️ ONLY SCAMMERS demand payment in Cryptocurrency (Bitcoin or Ether) by ordering you to go to a Crypto machine at a local store. No legitimate law enforcement agency or business is going to demand you send cryptocurrency, especially if they claim to be from Medicare, Tech Support, Geek Squad, Norton Antivirus, Amazon, any financial institution, the FBI, or your local Police Department.
Our Gloucester Township Police Criminal Investigation Detectives, and area Police Departments, have been investigating an alarming number of seniors becoming victims of email, phone, and internet scams. One of the latest scams is the victim being lured or ordered into paying the scammer in Cryptocurrency, or "Crypto", at Bitcoin or similar machines at a local store.
