The Canora /Sturgis RCMP would like to remind everyone that COVID-19 scams are everywhere right now. The RCMP would like to remind everyone again to never send money to anyone that you don’t know and to never release your personal information. As always, if you are not sure if something is a scam or not please contact the Canora RCMP at (306) 563-4700. Here’s a few ways that scammers are trying to take advantage of COVID-19 fears with calls, texts, and emails: 

1)         You can’t buy a COVID-19 “cure”.

2)         Beware of free gift offerings and always protect your identity.

3)         Test results phone calls: This is when scammers pretend to be from a public health agency and the fraudster tells you that you have tested positive for the coronavirus and, to get a prescription, must provide the scammer with your credit card and health card numbers.
