Officers from District C-11 and the Bureau of Community Engagement visited seniors from the Boston Housing Authority in Dorchester for a scam prevention presentation.
Officers shared important information on how to stay safe online, recognize common scams, and protect personal information. They also discussed what steps to take if you believe you’ve been targeted, including the importance of timely reporting.
We encourage anyone looking to learn more about reporting tips anonymously to visit police.boston.gov/crimestoppers. If you believe you have been the victim of a scam, we encourage you to contact your local Boston Police District Station. A list of district phone numbers can be found at BPDnews.com/districts.
