Kamloops Gun Show vendors in fraudster’s crosshairs

KAMLOOPS — The Kamloops Target Sports Association (KTSA) is warning that fraudsters have their sights set on registered gun show vendors.

According to the KTSA, a scammer had contacted vendors while falsely claiming to be the organization.

The KTSA is urging vigilance after the suspected fraud attempt, noting that they will never ask for credit card or payment information over the phone.

“Do not provide financial, personal or membership information to unsolicited callers claiming to represent KTSA,” the organization said in a social media post. “If you receive a suspicious call, do not share any information.”
