OPP Reporting Phone Scam

Provincial Police in Dryden are once again reminding residents to never give money or financial information to someone you don’t know.
The warning follows another attempted scam.
A local resident received a call from someone claiming to be his nephew.
The caller stated he was in jail for an impaired driving charge and needed $2,500 for bail.
The intended victim then received a call from another man stating he was his nephews lawyer and he was confirming the charge.
The man proceeded to provide information on how he could bail him out through a Western Union wire transfer.
