Evangelical Christian School completes $28.6M purchase of Hodges campus2 people wanted in multiple Fort Myers burglaries
COLLIER COUNTY, Fla.- The Collier County Sheriff’s Office is warning residents of a bank scam involving door hangers. A woman came to the door of an elderly Collier County resident, handed him some documents and told him to call the number on the door hanger immediately regarding his mortgage. Instead, the man contacted his attorney. When the attorney called the number, she heard a recording indicating that she had reached Bank of America customer service. The voice on the recording asked for the loan number and Social Security number associated with the mortgage. Bank of America has confirmed that this is a scam. CCSO encourages residents to be vigilant against scams. For assistance with any suspicious encounter involving a request for money or personal information, contact the Collier County Sheriff’s Office’s Call Before You “Pay” hotline at 239-252-CALL (2255). The hotline is staffed by a CCSO deputy in the Financial Crimes Bureau between 8 a.m.- 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.
