There continues to be multiple scams circulating that are meant to scare and confuse you into giving out personal information.

Remember you don’t have to answer the telephone.
If you don’t recognize a telephone number, don’t answer it.
If you do answer, NEVER give out your personal information.
Don’t open emails from senders you DO NOT know.
Always confirm with a utility company (or other) by contacting the number on your bill if there is a question of cancellation or past due funds.

Below are some helpful numbers:
Attorney General’s Office at 617-727-8400 to notify them of a scam.
Federal Trade Commission at 877 382 4357 to file ID theft report

As always please do not hesitate to contact the Mashpee Police Department with any questions or concerns regarding a call.

Any questions please contact Special Officer and Advocate Tara Carline at 508-539-1480 ext 7253
