SCAM ALERT FROM THE 66TH PRECINCT

Received via e-mail from John Sprague, Deputy Inspector at the 66th Precinct:
FYI: I would like to inform everyone about a case regarding a male posing as a water delivery employee, he rings bells and has taken advantage of an elderly person by distracting her and removing a large amount of money and jewelry from her private house.

If you are not sure or suspicious of anyone who comes to your door, please call 911 immediately!! Better to be safe than sorry.

Utility companies make appointments!!!

Bottom line: If you are not expecting someone, do not let them in!!!
