Unless it’s in response to the question “what do you want for your birthday?”, police will never ask you for a gift card.
That is exactly what Williams Lake RCMP are reminding residents following a rash of online fraud attempts in the community.
According to reports, someone claiming to be a police officer has been requesting gift cards, particularly Amazon cards, from unsuspecting residents.
Should you come across the scam, you are asked not to comply, but instead to gift the actual RCMP with a call at 250 392 6211.
