Rockland Report: Stay Alert – New Scam Alert for County Residents

Published

on

This is an important reminder, especially during tax season when scams are more prevalent. Scammers are constantly getting more creative, so it’s crucial to stay vigilant and skeptical of unsolicited messages, whether they come via email, text, or even pop-ups on your computer.

Here are a few more tips to help stay safe:

  1. Verify Contact Information: Always check official websites or phone numbers for IRS, USPS, or other agencies. Don’t rely on the contact information in the message.

  2. Don’t Click on Links: Never click on links or attachments from unknown sources, even if they appear to be from trusted organizations.

  3. Two-Factor Authentication: Enable two-factor authentication on your accounts whenever possible for an added layer of security.

  4. Regular Updates: Keep your software and antivirus programs up to date to ensure you’re protected from the latest threats.

  5. Be Cautious with Personal Information: If someone is asking for personal or financial information over the phone or email, take a step back and verify the legitimacy before providing anything.

If you’re ever in doubt, reach out to a trusted friend, family member, or local authorities can help clear things up. Stay safe out there!

On Friday, April 11th at 6 pm our community will come together for the 2025 the Relay for Life of Rockland County, taking place at Dominican University, Hennessy Center, 495 Western Highway South in Orangeburg, NY.

When someone is diagnosed with cancer, it impacts everyone – mothers, daughters, fathers, sons, grandparents, neighbors, and friends. It is a terrible, destructive disease that wreaks havoc on the lives of those we love and care about, and something must be done to stop it. Relay For Life is more than a walk – it’s a chance to come together in your local community to celebrate cancer survivors, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against every cancer as we come together for every life.

Funds raised through Relay support cancer survivors and their families, as well as education about how to reduce the risk of cancer or detect it early when it’s the easiest to treat, and funds cancer research that will help protect future generations.
