Notice from the Drexel police department

On Tuesday at about 10:30 AM, a member of our community received a phone call from an individual claiming to be a member of the Drexel Police Department.

This individual identified themselves as Captain Kennedy, and was able to call using our real Drexel PD phone number.
Our community member though, was quick on their feet and did not fall for the scam at hand. Thus, causing the caller to terminate the call.
Please rest assured, that no member of the Drexel Police Department will EVER call you asking for bail / fine money, Cryptocurrency, or gift cards (EG: iTunes, Amazon) or anything similar.
If you have experienced this type of call, please contact me either in-person or via Messenger.
Feel free to share.
