Southbury Police warn of robocall scam

Southbury Police are warning residents about a robocall scam.  A Heritage Village resident alerted police to a call that a Mac Notebook and new iPhone were being charged to their account and looking for authorization. The caller ID appeared as a local number, but the call didn’t specify the last four digits of the account like a normal banking institution would.  Southbury Police say this is done to shock the recipient to urgently provide the scammer with personal banking info. The robocall then tries to direct the victim to a menu so they provide that information regardless of choosing the 'No' option.  Southbury Police are reminding residents that a banking institution will not call and ask for an account number.  Anyone unsure about such a call is asked to hang up and dial the bank with the phone number provided on the back of a debit or credit card.  Banks will ask for verification such as last four of social and zip code.
