FBI Sacramento Field Office Warns of Scammers Posing as FBI Agents - FBI Sacramento Citizens Academy Alumni Association

SACRAMENTO—The Federal Bureau of Investigation Sacramento Field Office (FBI Sacramento) is cautioning the public to be wary of any unsolicited call, especially if the caller claims to be from the FBI.

“Nothing sends a person into a panic like a call from law enforcement, especially when the call informs them that they have been a victim of a crime or may be wanted for a crime,” explained Acting Special Agent in Charge Dennis Guertin. “Sadly, that response is something scammers are leveraging with increased frequency, so it is important to educate the public about what to look out for.”
