Publishing Clearing House Scam
Norfolk County OPP has received calls from concerned residents that received a phone call from an unknown male claiming that they had won a large sum of money.
Police say the caller claims they are calling from the Publishing Clearing House and that they would like to attend the home owner's address. The unknown caller then proceeds to provide the first few digits of a debit or credit card number and then asks for personal and financial information so that all the details on the cheque can be filled out.

“Each and every person plays a crucial role in combating identity theft. We need everyone to ensure that they secure and protect their personal and financial information,” Norfolk OPP Inspector Zvonko Horvat said in a release.
