Three different scam calls hit Kewaunee County

You should be on high alert from phone numbers you do not know after scammers tried three different stories to get money out of unsuspecting Kewaunee County residents on Friday. The Kewaunee County Dispatch fielded the three calls after residents recognized them as scams. One scammer posed as the Department of Security allegedly holding packages at the post office until the resident called a specific number to retrieve (the packages). A second call was a scammer trying to get money in exchange for a criminal action not taking place on their property. A third scammer posed as the person’s daughter claiming she needed money to avoid vehicular manslaughter charges.  The Kewaunee County Sheriff’s Department reminds residents to never provide personal information or a transaction of money. You should call your financial institution if you have any questions and contact local law enforcement if you have been targeted or made a victim of a scam.
