The Teague Police Department has become aware of a scam circulating in our area and want you to be aware.
A citizen has received a mailing of winning a large sum of money. The catch? They send a check for you to cash, turn over to them, and give you another check for your winnings.
Folks, please understand you should NEVER have to pay to receive prize winnings. NEVER give money upfront to receive anything of this nature.
Please contact us so we can work to combat this epidemic and prosecute these offenders.
