The Odessa Police Department is warning residents about a new puppy scam targeting locals. Scammers are impersonating the Odessa Animal Shelter, offering fake Dachshund puppies for sale and requesting payment through Apple Pay or gift cards. Stay alert and report suspicious activity!
With these gifts comes a card that asks, “do you want to know who this is from?” prompting you to scan a QR code that apparently hacks into your phone, steals your information, and wipes your card and accounts clean.
