Be Aware of Caller ID Spoofing! Don't hang on, Hang up!

What Is Spoofing?

Spoofing is when a caller deliberately falsifies the information transmitted to your caller ID display to disguise their identity. Scammers often use neighbor spoofing so it appears that an incoming call is from a local number, or from a company or a government agency that you may already know and trust to try to trick you into answering. If you answer, they use scam scripts to steal your money or valuable personal information, which can be used in fraudulent activity.

Please note, that the Holyoke Public Library will not call to ask for information on social security, bank or credit accounts, etc.

Watch the video and click through the tabs to learn more about spoofing and how to avoid being scammed.

If you think you've been the victim of a spoofing scam, you can file a complaint with the FCC.
