ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ Campus Safety has received reports of scam phone calls being made to parents of some of our student-athletes. This is a national scam that has occurred at institutions across the country.
Parents of several student-athletes have received scam calls from numbers â€spoofing†the ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ Campus Safety phone number. During these phone calls, the caller claims to be a ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ Campus Safety Officer and tells the parent that their son or daughter has been arrested for underage drinking or something similar and that money is needed to bail them out. They request immediate payment be made (via Venmo, bank transfer, or other electronic means) in order to release their son or daughter from custody.
Please be aware that ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ Campus Safety will never make a call to solicit money. If you receive such a call, it is fraudulent. Please report the call to ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ Campus Safety
It is not believed, at this point in time, that there has been a data breach as many student-athlete's media profiles contain the names of parents on the public website.
