SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The Bradshaw Animal Shelter says scammers are pretending to be employees of the shelter and are contacting people who have lost their pets.
The scammers say that they have the lost pets, that they need surgery urgently and then, they ask for money for the surgery.
The shelter added in a Facebook post that they will never ask for money over the phone for lost pets. They advise if you get a call like this, it's probably a scam.
If you think that you have been targeted by this scam, please report it to the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office by calling 916-874-5115.
