Livingston County Sheriff’s office received reports of scammers

Livingston County Sheriff, Steve Cox issued a news release on Monday that indicated the Sheriff’s office has received reports that scammers have twisted their approach to citizens in attempt to steal their money.  The latest involves multiple people calling with several variations, but one person will work at getting only the name of your bank.  Soon someone from your bank calls you to “verify” the financial transaction is legitimate while in fact it is all a fraud.  The plan is to build trust with you in order to make it easier to steal your money. Sheriff Cox said keep your money and only do business with those you know and trust.  Be safe.
