Seniors vs. Crime warning Villagers about SUV scam

Seniors vs. Crime is warning Villagers that if you receive a call from a bubbly woman calling herself Kelly informing you that your entry has been chosen and you are the a winner of a new SUV, “you need to know you are not a winner.”

If you call back the number (800) 460-7122, you will end up a loser, according to Seniors vs. Crime.

“If nothing else, calling them back targets you as a potential scam victim and your name and number will be passed around like a military canteen on a hot day. Don’t fall for these scams. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is,” Seniors vs. Crime said in its advisory.

Stay one step ahead of the scammers by “liking” the Seniors vs. Crime Facebook page.
