Maryland State Police Warning Public about Telephone Scams
Maryland State Police Warning Public about Telephone Scams
#ALERT Maryland State
Police is warning the public regarding several recently reported phone scams.
As a reminder, never give your personal information out over the phone. https://www.facebook.com/MarylandStatePolice/photos/a.155263044494316/2224530824234184/?type=3&theater

According to a release from the Maryland State Police on February
7, 2019
(PIKESVILLE, Md.) —
Maryland State Police are warning the public about a reported telephone scam in
which the caller cloned a state police number and requested personal
information from people as part of a criminal investigation.
A woman called the
Maryland State Police on Thursday morning and reported she had received a call
in which the caller ID on her phone showed “Maryland State Government” and the
number 301-475-8955, which is the number for the Maryland State Police
Leonardtown Barrack. When she answered the call, the person on the other end
told her she was a suspect in a drug trafficking investigation and that she
needed to provide them her Social Security number and other identifying
personal information.
This is just one of
several phone scams recently reported to Maryland State Police. The Salisbury
Barrack reported that some of the scams reported include victims receiving
telephone calls where they are threatened with arrest or the continued
detention of family members if they do not provide money, account numbers or
purchase a re-loadable gift or credit cards.
Another telephone scam
includes the victim being called by a representative of the Internal Revenue
Service and threatened in the same fashion. The Salisbury Barrack reported that
other victims have had their computers infected with a computer virus and were
prompted to take immediate action in order to salvage the computer, which
included purchasing up to $2,000 in gift cards to pay the company to correct
the issue.
This came after the
Maryland State Police Cumberland Barrack was recently inundated with numerous
telephone calls regarding a scam in which a man or woman claiming to be from
the Social Security Administration requested information and threatened to have
the police respond to their address to arrest them.
These scammers are
using scare tactics and sophisticated technology to attempt to take advantage
of the public. If you are a senior citizen, or have a family member that is a
senior citizen, please be aware and ensure they are aware of these scams so
they do not fall victim to them.
The Maryland State
Police, along with government agencies like the Social Security Administration
or the Internal Revenue Service, would never solicit such information or
services over the phone from any citizen. Never give any personal information
over the phone, and only allow a qualified reputable computer technician the
ability to repair your computer should it become infected with a virus. Many of
these telephone scams are disguising themselves by utilizing local telephone
number prefixes.
Anyone who receives
such a phone call should hang up and then contact their local state police
barrack. Callers may remain anonymous.

Welcome to the monthly Lunch About Nothing in Westminster
Lunch About Nothing with approximately 35 of my best friends. Rafael's 32 West Main St. 28Jan2019
Welcome to Lunch About Nothing, September 24, 2018. Held the fourth Monday of the month at Rafael's in Westminster (not necessarily the last Monday) 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm. Next lunch February 25. Just buy your lunch from a great menu of salads and fresh sandwiches.Make new contacts and see friends. Business is everywhere if you look. Bring some friends. Bring plenty of business cards and fliers. Be prepared to introduce yourself with a 30 second elevator speech. You can even bring a few things to sell if you are a crafter or artist.
It is important to keep your name out there. You never know where the business is and name recognition is important when someone needs your service or product.
It is a good place to look for a new employee or to get your name out there for a job. Long term relationships will bring you business. No need to RSVP. You do not need to join. The group is open. Invite your friends and new people you meet.
Some of the folks at the Lunch About nothing on Monday,
January 28, 2019 included:

Save the date: The 2019 “Slave Narratives” program at the Union Memorial Baptist Church will take place this year during Black History month on February 23rd, 2019.
Carroll County NAACP Executive Board member Diane Hurd reports that more detailed information will follow soon.
She also reports that that this year’s program will include 14 narratives – and she still needs a few more readers. So if you are interested in participating in this moving and informative program, please contact E. Board Member HurdI have written about this event in the past. It is well-worth squeezing the event into a busy calendar. I have written about the event in the past. On March 5, 2017 I wrote: “Time Flies: Dayhoff: Slave Narratives bring to life a glimpse at Maryland's dark past.”
If serious threatening vitriolic hate mail is any measure of the quality of a newspaper article, I scored well. It all goes with the territory I guess. SMH.
Please enjoy, “Time Flies: Dayhoff: Slave Narratives bring to life a glimpse at Maryland's dark past.” http://www.carrollcountytimes.com/columnists/cctnews-dayhoff-0305-20170303-column.html
March 3, 2017 - Last Saturday afternoon, 50 people gathered at the historic Union Memorial Baptist Church on Center Street in Westminster for a production of the "Maryland Slave Narratives." The production was an opportunity to pull back the curtain of time and take a glimpse at the dark past of slavery in America from the comfort and safety of sitting in the pews at church.
