Telephone Scam Targets Businesses

November 22, 2014

(Spirit Lake)– An apparent telephone scam targeted at area businesses is making the rounds.

Several area businesses report receiving phone calls in recent days from someone claiming to represent a Police Chief’s and Sheriff’s association raising money on behalf of law enforcement.

Dickinson county Sheriff Greg Baloun says it’s a scam. He says no local Sheriff’s or Police Chiefs are currently soliciting funds.

Anyone getting such a call should disregard it.

If you would like to contribute to a law enforcement agency, you shoud do so directly.
