Pennsylvania State Po-lice troopers from the Kit-tanning barracks warned local residents about a new type of scamming that is affecting the re-gion.
Troopers say that the new scam includes fake kidnapping. They describe that victims are contacted via phone and the caller identifies themselves as a family member that has been kidnapped. The caller requests money in order to release them from the kidnapper’s cus-tody, and will often cry or make attempts to mask their own voice to try and persuade victims. A third person, usually a male, then gets on the phone and makes further mon-etary demands, and states that if they contact police, their family member will be physically harmed.
Variations to this hoax
include: a loved one in jail and needing money for bond/legal fees in an-other state or country, a loved one involved in an automobile accident in another state and need-ing money for doctor/at-torney bills, a loved one (usually a young child) kidnapped while coming to/from school, winning money from a foreign lot-tery you don’t remember entering and they need a fee to send you your win-nings, etc. etc.
If residents find them-selves receiving a similar phone call, State Police officials urge residents to reach out to their fam-ily members first before actually sending money to verify if they are safe. Ask questions of the call-er that only family mem-bers would know the an-swer to. Then, call 9-1-1 if you believe they are in danger.
