Scam Alert 

June 1, 2026 – San Bernardino Police Department officials report that recent reports have shown a rise in intricate scams involving the use of AI. These can include artificially spoofed voices, voice cloning, impersonation of loved ones, and more.

This is your sign to NEVER give personal information or send funds to unverified individuals. Utilizing resources such as call blockers, as well as establishing an in-person 'safe word' between loved ones, can help minimize your risk of fraud. Be proactive, stay informed, and protect yourself from scams.
