🚨 𝗦𝗖𝗔𝗠 𝗔𝗟𝗘𝗥𝗧 | 𝗗𝗢𝗡’𝗧 𝗟𝗘𝗧 𝗨𝗥𝗚𝗘𝗡𝗖𝗬 𝗠𝗔𝗞𝗘 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗗𝗘𝗖𝗜𝗦𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗬𝗢𝗨

The Indian Head Park Police Department continues to receive reports from residents encountering fraudulent messages and warnings while using their computers, laptops, and tablets.

The circumstances may vary, but the objective is almost always the same: 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴, 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮 𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘂𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.

A message may appear to come from your bank, credit card company, Microsoft, or another trusted institution. It might warn that your account has been compromised, suspicious activity has been detected, or immediate action is required to protect your money.

You may be instructed to call a telephone number, click a link, provide personal information, or even allow someone remote access to your computer.

𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗲𝘅𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼.

These scams affect people of all ages. While we often hear from our older residents, particularly those 65 and older, no one is immune.

Scammers may attempt to obtain your name, address, date of birth, Social Security number, banking information, or account credentials. In some cases, victims are instructed to withdraw money, purchase gift cards, or convert their savings into cryptocurrency through Bitcoin ATMs or digital wallets.

𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗔𝗗𝗩𝗜𝗖𝗘 𝗜𝗦 𝗦𝗜𝗠𝗣𝗟𝗘: 𝗦𝗧𝗢𝗣 𝗕𝗘𝗙𝗢𝗥𝗘 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗣𝗢𝗡𝗗.

Do not call the number displayed in the message. Do not click unfamiliar links, provide personal information, or grant remote access to your device.

If you’re concerned that a warning might be legitimate, contact your financial institution directly using a telephone number you already know or one printed on your bank card. Never rely on the contact information provided in the suspicious message.

𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗥𝗘𝗠𝗘𝗠𝗕𝗘𝗥, 𝗪𝗘’𝗥𝗘 𝗛𝗘𝗥𝗘 𝗧𝗢 𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗣.

If you receive one of these messages and aren’t sure what to do, contact the Indian Head Park Police Department before taking any action.

You can stop by the police department or call us. An officer can help you evaluate the situation, including responding to your residence when appropriate.

We would much rather spend a few minutes helping you determine whether something is legitimate than have you become the victim of financial fraud or identity theft.

These scams are not new. They’re not going away, and scammers keep changing their tactics.

𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝗱𝗼𝘂𝗯𝘁, 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽, 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗳𝘆, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝘀𝗸 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽.

Please share this reminder with family members, friends, and neighbors. A simple conversation today could prevent someone from becoming a victim tomorrow.

Today, the Indian Head Park Police Department joins communities across our nation in honoring the brave men and women who have served in the United States Armed Forces.

For many veterans, service to others does not end when they leave the military. That same commitment to duty, honor, and service often continues in their civilian careers, including law enforcement.

This Veterans Day, we are especially proud to recognize four members of the Indian Head Park Police Department who have worn both the uniform of our nation’s military and the uniform of our police department.

🇺🇸 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗞𝗿𝗶𝘀 𝗚𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗻𝗲𝗿 – United States Marine Corps

🇺🇸 𝗢𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗲𝗿 𝗚𝗲𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘇 – United States Air Force

🇺🇸 𝗢𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 𝗠𝘂𝘀𝗸𝗮 – United States Army

🇺🇸 𝗢𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗲𝗿 𝗥𝗼𝗯 𝗩𝗲𝗿𝗯𝗲𝗿 – United States Marine Corps

🇺🇸 𝗢𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗲𝗿 𝗜𝘀𝗮𝗶𝗮𝗵 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝘀 – United States Army

Their military service represents a commitment to something greater than themselves, a commitment that continues through their dedication to protecting and serving our community.

To our fellow veterans, past and present, across every branch of the Armed Forces, we extend our sincere gratitude for your service, sacrifices, and unwavering dedication to our country.

𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝘂𝘀 𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝗣𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁, 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲.

𝗡𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗟 𝗙𝗔𝗠𝗜𝗟𝗬 𝗖𝗔𝗥𝗘𝗚𝗜𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗦 𝗠𝗢𝗡𝗧𝗛 | 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗖𝗔𝗥𝗘𝗚𝗜𝗩𝗘𝗥 𝗡𝗢𝗕𝗢𝗗𝗬 𝗦𝗘𝗘𝗦

Not every caregiver wears a uniform, works in healthcare, or receives a paycheck. In fact, many of the people providing care every day don’t even consider themselves caregivers.

They’re the adult children checking on aging parents before heading to work. The spouses managing medications, appointments, and household responsibilities. The parents caring for children with disabilities. The relatives, friends, and neighbors making sure someone they care about is safe, comfortable, and supported.

For many, caregiving doesn’t begin with a formal decision. It starts with a ride to a doctor’s appointment, help with groceries, or checking in a little more often. Over time, those small acts of assistance can become significant daily responsibilities.

And because so much of this happens quietly, behind closed doors and within families, the people providing that care often go unrecognized.

As we continue recognizing National Family Caregivers Month, this year’s theme, “Care Connects Us,” reminds us that caregiving is part of the fabric of our communities. These individuals provide an essential connection between vulnerable loved ones and the assistance, companionship, and support they need.

At the Indian Head Park Police Department, we recognize the important role family caregivers play in helping loved ones remain safe and supported. We also recognize that many caregivers may not realize organizations and resources are available to help them.

If you regularly help someone manage daily life because of an illness, disability, or age-related limitation, you may already be a family caregiver even if you’ve never called yourself one.

And if you know someone quietly providing that care, take a moment to recognize what they do. Sometimes a simple acknowledgment can mean more than we realize.

We’ve included additional information about recognizing family caregivers and connecting them with support in the pinned comment below.

At the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918, the guns of World War I fell silent, marking the armistice that ended the fighting of the Great War. What began as Armistice Day would eventually become Veterans Day, a day set aside to honor all who have served in the United States Armed Forces, in times of war and peace.

Today, Wednesday, November 11, our nation comes together for the 73rd National Veterans Day Observance at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia.

The annual ceremony includes the traditional wreath-laying at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, a Parade of Colors featuring veterans’ organizations, musical tributes, and remarks honoring the generations of American men and women who have answered the call to serve.

For those wishing to participate from home, the Department of Defense’s DVIDS platform will livestream the observance.

🇺🇸 𝗪𝗔𝗧𝗖𝗛 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 𝗡𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗟 𝗩𝗘𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗔𝗡𝗦 𝗗𝗔𝗬 𝗢𝗕𝗦𝗘𝗥𝗩𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘

The livestream is scheduled to begin at 9:20 a.m. Central Time, with the official ceremony beginning at 10:00 a.m. Central Time.

Veterans Day is more than a date on the calendar. It is an opportunity to recognize the courage, commitment, and sacrifices of those who have worn our nation’s uniform, as well as the families who have stood beside them.

Whether you attend a ceremony, reach out to a veteran, or take a moment for quiet reflection, we encourage everyone in our community to remember the significance of this day.

To all our veterans, past and present, thank you for your service. Your sacrifices, your dedication, and your willingness to serve our country will never be forgotten.
