Beware of a recent phone scam

Local lost & injured pet phone scam

 

If you receive an urgent call from anyone claiming to be staff from a Sacramento-area animal shelter (even if it looks legitimate on your caller ID) and they are demanding you pay them money over the phone or via test to reclaim your injured pet, immediately hang up and call your local shelter directly.
