Council Urges the Community to Stay Vigilant Against Scams
Back
Residents are warned to be vigilant and report any encounters with individuals claiming to represent the South Burnett Regional Council.
Council employees will promptly provide identification upon request, to prove who they are and why they are there.
If anyone receives a visit from someone, they believe is impersonating a Council officer, please report it immediately to Council so we are informed and can take action including reporting details to the proper authorities.
Council is concerned that elderly and vulnerable residents are prey to scammers whose eventual aim is to steal people’s identities and money.
Residents who believe they, or a family member, have been contacted by a scammer are urged to contact Council on (07) 4189 9100 or email info@sbrc.qld.gov.au.
