NYS Warns of New Phone Scam

People across New York are being asked to be aware of an ongoing scam.

Officials say criminals are making calls to random people and claiming they're from government agencies.

When the person receives the call, the caller ID display makes it appear like it's coming from a phone number associated with an official office.

The scammers often ask for personal information that they could use to steal someone's identity.

Officials say if you get a suspicious call, hang up and call the agency back at a number found on an official website.
