Authorities in Louisiana Warning of Reports of Scammers Targeting Residents in Beauregard Parish
Beauregard Parish, Louisiana – Authorities in Louisiana are warning reports of scammers targeting residents in Beauregard Parish.
The Beauregard Parish Sheriff’s Office (BPSO) reported that it has received reports of scammers contacting citizens in the community. According to authorities, scammers initiate contact by providing the victim with an issue, which can only be resolved by the victim sending money.
To “resolve” your issue the scammer might request you to purchase gift cards and provide the identifying numbers on the cards. Others may ask you to submit payments via bitcoin machines. No matter the method asked, the intent is to steal your money.
BPSO suggests that residents not provide their personal information or send money to anyone if they feel you are the target of a scam.
Authorities indicated that if you are contacted and suspect it is a scam, call BPSO at 337-463-3281.
