Police issue warning after 2 accused of scamming residents out of thousands in different parts of Massachusetts
Police in Massachusetts are warning the public after a pair is accused of scamming residents of thousands of dollars. According to police, Yarmouth Police received a call from a local bank Monday morning reporting a potential fraudulent transaction taking place. A 96-year-old Yarmouth resident had attempted to withdraw $10,000 after receiving a call earlier in the morning from a man claiming to be a bail bondsman. The caller told her that her son was in jail, and she needed to withdraw the money to bail him out. Yarmouth Police Officer Jefferson Willis responded to the bank and identified the transaction as fraudulent and was similar to scams reported nationwide. Through his investigation, he learned the scammer had instructed the victim to place money in a box and it would be picked up by a ride-share driver, who was not involved in the scam.
