🚨 🚨 🚨
COMMUNITY ALERT: 🚨 DuPage County Sheriff’s Office Impersonation Scam 🚨
The DuPage County Sheriff’s Office warns residents about callers impersonating law enforcement and requesting money for a family member’s “bond,” GPS ankle monitor or court ordered classes.
A familiar phone number does not prove the call is legitimate. Scammers can manipulate caller ID to display the Sheriff’s Office or Jail number and may know accurate information about your family.
•🚨 Do not send money through Cash App, Venmo or other payment apps at an unsolicited caller’s direction.
•🚨 Do not provide banking information, passwords or verification codes.
•🚨 Be suspicious of urgent payment demands or instructions to remain on the phone while transferring money.
Hang up and verify independently. Find the agency’s number on its official website and call directly. Do not rely on a number supplied by the caller.
If you already sent money, contact your bank or payment service immediately and report the incident to your local police department.

“Today, CUB delivered more than 10,000 petition signatures to the Illinois Commerce Commission, all from people saying NO to the Peoples Gas rate hike. 📦

“After a news conference at the CUB office, we marched those signatures straight to the ICC so regulators hear directly from the customers who would pay the price.” Read our full news release: https://buff.ly/PGbV08c
