Health Unit Warns Of COVID-19 Scam

A COVID-19 testing scam is making the rounds in the city.

The District Health Unit says a scammer has been phoning people and playing a pre-recorded message that says you tested positive for COVID-19.

Health officials say they never use a pre-recorded message to deliver test results or other personal information.

The Health Unit will have a staff member call you, or if you aren’t reachable by phone you may receive a home visit, letter in the mail, social media direct message, or a text asking you to call the Health Unit.
