Scammers recently spoofed the Irvine Police Department’s Caller Identification in at least two reported incidents where they pretended to be police officers, demanding personal information and large sums of money, a spokesperson for the department said.
“Overall, it’s just kind of a rolling issue whether it’s Edison or the Water District or Amazon or Netflix, it just seems to be an ongoing issue with people spoofing entities and agencies,” Irvine Police Department’s Kyle Oldoerp told The Epoch Times.
