Fire department phone scam targets Sun Peaks resident
SUN PEAKS, B.C. — Residents beware: another phone scam is making the rounds.
The latest scam targeted Sun Peaks resident Robb Blaney, with the fraudster claiming to be with “the fire department.”
“They called mid-afternoon yesterday (Tuesday),” said Blaney. “A fellow said he was with the fire department, he didn’t say which area and said that he was glad he finally got a hold of me.”
Then Blaney says the caller made his pitch to see if Blaney would donate some money.
