Scam texts are making the rounds once more, prompting warnings from authorities. Commissioner Sean Tindell emphasized the importance of being cautious and not responding to suspicious messages.
In recent weeks, residents have reported receiving messages that appear to be scams, often requesting personal information or prompting recipients to click links. Officials advise ignoring and deleting these messages.
Commissioner Tindell urged residents to stay vigilant and to report any scam attempts to local authorities. He reminded the public to be wary of unsolicited messages and to verify any suspicious communication through official channels.
