Putnam County Sheriff warns of coronavirus phone scam

Putnam County Sheriff Robert Langley is warning residents of a possible telephone scam relating to testing for the Coronavirus.  Recently, the Sheriff’s Office was alerted to a robocall stating that a company will mail a COVID-19 test kit if you provide your social security number.  The Putnam County Health Department confirmed that “there are currently no FDA-approved COVID-19 tests available through the mail.  Langley is reminding all citizens, especially seniors, to be cautious and not to provide a social security number for a mail-order COVID-19 test--or in general.  Any fraud case can be reported to the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office at (845)225-4300, or the local police department.
