[0:04] Hello Brooklyn Center. Chief Garrett [0:06] Fuzzen here with this week's Chief [0:08] Scout. As we move into the holiday [0:10] season, it's a great time for giving, [0:12] connecting, and celebrating. [0:14] Unfortunately, it's also a time when [0:16] scammers become more active. So, I'd [0:18] like to offer a couple of quick [0:20] reminders to keep you and your family [0:22] safe. Please watch out for online [0:24] shopping scams. Stick to trusted [0:26] retailers and track your orders directly [0:29] through their official websites. Please [0:31] watch out for suspicious emails, phone [0:34] calls, and text messages. No legitimate [0:36] business or agency will ask for your [0:38] passwords or full credit card numbers. [0:41] Please watch out for fake charities and [0:44] gift card schemes. Verify any charity [0:46] before you donate. And remember, if [0:48] someone is asking you to pay with gift [0:50] cards, it's almost always a scam. A few [0:53] simple precautions can make a big [0:55] difference in protecting your money and [0:57] personal information this season. Until [1:00] next week, stay safe, look out for one [1:02] another, and please remember, we're here [1:04] to serve. Don't hesitate to reach out if [1:06] you need us.
