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 text to treat or reclaim your injured pet, immediately hang up and call your local shelter directly.
Families in Sacramento who have lost a pet and posted on the various lost/found pet social media groups are being targeted by this phone scam. These scammers use details from the lost/found pet post to contact the owner and legitimize the call by describing the injured pet and location it was found.
If you receive one of these calls, do not provide your personal or financial information. Please hang up immediately and contact your shelter directly to avoid being a victim of this heartbreaking scam:
