Quincy Police Warn of ‘Public Schools’ Phone Scam
Quincy Police has learned of a possible local phone scam in recent days.
QPD learned from the Quincy Public Schools that several citizens report they received phone calls that appeared to originate from “Public Schools” on caller ID.
The call is a recording stating that the person has won a cruise and that they need to verify that the person is over the age of 18.
Quincy Public Schools want the public to know that they have no affiliation with whoever is contacting random Quincy area citizens.
Quincy Police remind the public not to give personal information out over the phone.
