[ARCHIVED] Fraud

On 08/03/2022 at 12:16p.m.,  the Hampton Township Police Department was dispatched to Lakeview Drive in regard to a fraud complaint. The reporting party advised that they received a SMS message on their phone from "Amazon Criminal Department." The resident advised that they called the telephone number listed on the message. The individual that they spoke with advised that their account had been compromised. The caller advised that the resident needed to send the individual a photograph of their PA driver's license and possibly with a social security number. This is a common fraud that is used by scammers. Residents are encouraged to refrain from providing any sensitive information over the phone.
