On July 2, 2013 at 7:18 PM, Officers were dispatched to a residence on the west side of Sturgeon Bay for a phone scam. Upon arrival Officers found that the complainant had received multiple phone calls from a private phone number stating she had won 2.5 million dollars and a new car. The complainant was told to go to Walmart to send a money order to the caller. The complainant provided Officers with the contact number used by the caller, which was 1-866-996-5997. The complainant never sent any money as she had become suspicious and contacted Police.
As always if it sounds too good to be true it probably is! Contact Police if you have any questions reference suspicious calls, mail, or any other incidents at 920-746-2450.
