Wolfeboro police issue warning about Green Dot scams

The Wolfeboro police department has issued a warning about “Green Dot scams” where imposters pose as FBI or IRS agents and threaten victims with arrest if a fine is not paid. Police said that the scam victims are instructed to pay these “fines” though  an online app known as MoneyPak. 

Green Dot is the company affiliated with MoneyPak and is offering assistance to help victims recover money lost to the scam. You can file a complaint with Green Dot at this link here. You should also notify your local police as well as the New Hampshire Attorney General by calling 1-888-468-4454 or by email at doj-cpb@doj.nh.gov.
