scam

There is a new scam in Washington State and these are the things you need to know so you don't fall victim to it.

  Kennewick Police and other law enforcement agencies are warning citizens the fake gold scam is back. Suspects try to get people to buy gold jewelry because they need cash It begins with people approaching 'victims' in parking lots of grocery and convenience stores and other public venues, and telling them various stories bout how they need cash or are trying to sell expensive jewelry to survive.

If it doesn't feel right, it's not.

If you're NOT expecting a package, there is NO reason to click on it.

Remember, if something is too good to be true, like getting $85,000 for free, it is probably too good and, more than likely, a scam.

The fire district says they don't sell branded merchandise ever.

Benton PUD has received several calls from customers reporting they've received calls and texts threatening to disconnect their power if payment is not made.
