DANGEROUS SCAM IN PORT JEFFERSON

DANGEROUS SCAM IN PORT JEFFERSON

Please advise all of your neighbors, families and friends that there apparently is a dangerous SCAM going around our village. 

A neighbor was contacted this morning (Saturday 1/5/13) by phone with a request for donations for "the soup kitchen". This individual asked for directions to the neighbor's house to 'come by' to pick up the donation.

WELCOME INN would NEVER seek funds in this or any similar manner.

This is a SCAM - do not give any information to such callers. Hang up immediately and call the police to advise them. Do NOT open your doors to any strangers - I fear that such persons could perpetrate even more serious actions such as a home invasion!
