Centralia Police Warn of New Scam

Centralia Police are warning area residents of another scam.

They received a report Thursday of someone calling and identifying themselves as being with Buchheits. They demanded immediate payment on an overdue credit bill or legal action would be taken. The person who was called hung up and went to Buchheits where they were told the company doesn’t have credit cards and don’t make any such calls.

Police say if you receive such a call to hang up and don’t provide the caller with any personal information.
