Another Scam Making The Rounds

Another scam is making the rounds and Rothesay Regional Police are throwing up the warning flag. Officers tell us they are investigating an incident where someone called a home in the Kennebecasis Valley and said they were a representative of Microsoft.

They then asked the home-owner to go to their computer as there was a problem with their Windows support system.

The questions then got more personal and the home-owner asked for a phone number to call them back.

The number was bogus and the home-owner then called police. Rothesay Regional Police remind everyone to NEVER give out personal information over the phone.
