SCAM ALERT: DCPD Phone Number Being Used to Spoof

Currently, the Daly City Police Department is aware of a phone scam impersonating officers of the Daly City Police Department. The number that's being "Spoofed" by scammers is 650-991-8119, which is the front desk line of the Police Department. This phone number only accepts phone calls and is unable to make phone calls. If you receive a call from the phone 650-991-8119, it is a scam.

If you receive a call or voicemail from 650-991-8119 regarding a “cybercrime, fraud investigation, that you have a warrant out for your arrest,” or other similar issues, please do not give out any information to the person calling and hang up. Our officers will not call you from 650-991-8119 and would never ask for money, money orders, gift cards, or any sort of financial compensation. If you receive a phone call from this number asking you to come in person to the Daly City Police Department, it is likely part of the scam. Please first contact the Daly City Police Department, or your local police agency directly, and verify the request before going to the police department.

If you have any questions regarding a call you received or if you were asked to come into the police station, please contact 650-991-8119 and you'll be connected with the front desk staff.

Nextdoor.com
 
Nextdoor.com is a free private social networking website for your neighborhood. This private network ensures that only those who live in your neighborhood can join; users must go through a verification process. Neighbors ask each other for business recommendations; help in locating missing pets; discuss relevant local government issues; or connect for other reasons. It is very easy to sign up. I like the fact that the site verifies users by addresses, and it won’t allow people to access a neighborhood if they don’t live there. Please note: The City of Daly City and/or the Police Department cannot see what residents post—we are only allowed to post information. There is also a mobile application, or you can have it sent to your e-mail. Give it a try!  www.nextdoor.com
